Facial recognition technology (FRT) makes it possible to compare digital facial images to determine whether they are of the same person. Comparing footage obtained from video cameras (CCTV) with images in databases is referred to as ‘live facial recognition technology’. Examples of national law enforcement authorities in the EU using such technology are sparse – but several are testing its potential. This paper therefore looks at the fundamental rights implications of relying on live FRT, focusing on its use for law enforcement and border-management purposes.
As part of the background research for the Agency’s project on ‘Artificial intelligence (AI), Big Data and Fundamental Rights’, FRA has collected information on AI-related policy initiatives in EU Member States and beyond in the period 2016-2020. The collection currently includes about 350 initiatives.
Fundamental Rights Report 2019: 2018 was a landmark year for data protection. New EU rules took effect and complaints of breaches increased significantly.

Algorithms used in machine learning systems and artificial intelligence (AI) can only be as good as the data used for their development. High quality data are essential for high quality algorithms. Yet, the call for high quality data in discussions around AI often remains without any further specifications and guidance as to what this actually means.

With enormous volumes of data generated every day, more and more decisions are based on data analysis and algorithms. This can bring welcome benefits, such as consistency and objectivity, but algorithms also entail great risks. A FRA focus paper looks at how the use of automation in decision making can result in, or exacerbate, discrimination.

In November 2017, the European Commission requested FRA’s support in evaluating the impact on fundamental rights of the European Border Surveillance System (Eurosur) Regulation. Further to this request, FRA reviewed the work of the European Border and Coast Guard Agency (Frontex) and analysed cooperation agreements concluded by EU Member States with third countries which are relevant for the exchange of information for the purposes of Eurosur. This report presents the main findings of such review.

The year 2017 brought both progress and setbacks in terms of rights protection. The European Pillar of Social Rights marked an important move towards a more ‘social Europe’. But, as experiences with the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights underscore, agreement on a text is merely a first step. Even in its eighth year as the EU's binding bill of rights, the Charter's potential was not fully exploited, highlighting the need to more actively promote its use.

Brz razvoj informacijske tehnologije povećao je potrebu za snažnom zaštitom osobnih podataka. To je pravo
zaštićeno instrumentima i Europske unije (EU) i Vijeća Europe. Zaštita tog važnog prava podrazumijeva nove
i značajne izazove dok tehnološki napredak dovodi do pomicanja granica područja poput nadzora, presretanja
komunikacija i pohrane podataka. Ovaj je priručnik namijenjen pravnicima koji nisu specijalizirani u području
zaštite podataka kako bi se upoznali s ovim novim područjem prava.

Organizacije civilnog društva u Europskoj uniji igraju važnu ulogu u promicanju temeljnih prava, no to im je sve teže činiti iz zakonskih i praktičnih razloga. Iako postoje izazovi u svim
državama članicama EU-a, točna priroda i opseg tih izazova razlikuju se. Općenito govoreći, nedostaju podatci i istraživanja o tom problemu, uključujući komparativna istraživanja.
Izvještaj FRA-e stoga se osvrće na različite vrste i obrasce izazova s kojima se suočavaju organizacije civilnog društva koje se bave ljudskim pravima u EU-u. Također ističe obećavajuće prakse koje se mogu upotrijebiti za suzbijanje tih zabrinjavajućih obrazaca.

Zbog rastućih prijetnji od terorizma, kibernapada i sofisticiranih prekograničnih kriminalnih mreža posao obavještajnih službi sve je više žuran, složen i odvija se na međunarodnoj razini. Takav posao može znatno zadirati u temeljna prava, osobito u prava na privatnost i zaštitu podataka. Iako kontinuirani tehnološki napretci potencijalno pogoršavaju opasnost od takvog zadiranja, učinkovit nadzor i pravni lijekovi mogu ograničiti mogućnost zlouporabe.
