Police Pause Facial Recognition After Higher Accuracy On Black Faces.

Police in Essex, in eastern England, have paused the use of live facial recognition cameras after a study suggested the system may more reliably identify Black individuals. How horrible.

The cameras are designed to detect wanted suspects. One possible explanation for the findings, reported by The Guardian, is that the algorithm may have been over-trained on images of Black faces. Police said the software will now be reviewed in cooperation with the provider.

The study was commissioned by Essex Police and carried out by the University of Cambridge. A total of 188 participants walked past facial recognition cameras mounted on police vehicles in Chelmsford. The results, published last week, showed that around half of those on a watchlist were correctly identified, while false matches were rare.

Men were more likely to be correctly identified than women, and it was “statistically significantly more likely that Black participants were correctly identified than participants from other ethnic groups,” according to the study.

The findings raise “questions about fairness that require ongoing monitoring,” the report noted, recommending further analysis across demographic groups to ensure equitable use. One of the authors, criminologist Matt Bland, said that individuals passing such cameras would be more likely to be identified as a person of interest if they were Black.

Live facial recognition is currently used by multiple police forces across the United Kingdom, with cameras deployed either at fixed locations or mounted on vehicles for mobile use. Earlier this year, Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood announced plans to expand the rollout, including a significant increase in the number of operational units.

In London alone, the technology contributed to around 1,300 arrests between January 2024 and September 2025, involving suspects accused of offences including rape, serious assault, and domestic violence.

Two Minor Girls Sentenced Over “Antisemitic Rampage” In London.

Wait, so is “antisemitic violence” illegal now?

Two teenage girls have been sentenced for a series of antisemitic attacks in London, including one that left a woman unconscious.

The 14- and 15-year-olds, who cannot be named because of their age, targeted members of the Jewish community in Stamford Hill in four separate incidents over half an hour in December 2023, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said.

The CPS said the pair appeared at Stratford magistrates court on Wednesday where they were handed a youth rehabilitation order for 18 months.

They were also ordered to undertake a rehabilitation activity requirement for 30 and 45 hours, and placed under curfew with an electronic tag for three months.

The CPS said it successfully applied for a tougher sentence to be handed down to reflect that most of the attacks were “motivated by hate”.

Prosecutors said that, in the first incident, the teenagers demanded money from a woman on St Ann’s Road. One of them tried to hit the victim but missed, and the woman managed to escape.

Ten minutes later the pair demanded money from a 12-year-old girl near Holmdale Terrace, but let her go after they realised she had none.

Within five minutes, they started to harass a group of four 11-year-old girls, using antisemitic language and asking them for money. The defendants followed one of the girls after they ran away, grabbing hold of her arm and taking her lunch bag from her, according to the CPS.

In the final incident, which happened half an hour after the first, the girls attacked a woman on Rostrevor Avenue. The defendants approached the victim and asked if she had money in her pocket. When the woman tried to walk away from them, she was struck in the back.

We would have to assume these are Arabian teenagers.

But they’re not publishing images, so you can imagine they are cute anime girls, if it meets your fancy.

What freedom of expression?
