Major supermarkets in the UK are joining forces with the police in a radical data sharing tie-up known as Project Pegasus that supporters hope will cut down on retail crime. However, opponents say it marks a civil liberties intrusion.
That article is in my opinion a promotional item emphasising the shoplifting almost bankrupting retail stores and glorifying the capacities of facial recognition and data sharing.
Of course it is, it’s the Torygraph. The language is deliberately chosen to provide the reader with an underhanded bias, not to question why the past 13 years of UK government has created the situation.
