Israel discreetly launches a mass facial recognition spying program in the Gaza Strip. The program, which was created after the October 7 attacks, uses technology from Google Photos, as well as a custom tool designed by Tel Aviv-based Corsight to identify people affiliated with Hamas.
Troopers told the New York Times that Corsight's technology was not always accurate, especially when it relied on grainy footage or images in which people's faces were obscured. In some cases, Corsight mistakenly identified people as being linked to Hamas.
