An article in Muckrock reveals that the California Department of Justice (CDOJ) is using facial recognition cameras to spy on everyone. The CDOJ spent close to one million dollars ($850K) to install NEC's NeoFace system everywhere. According to the article, the CDOJ has been spying on everyone since April 26th., 2016. What's even worse is the CDOJ is paying NEC $650,000 every year in 'support fees'. Which means Calif. taxpayers are paying $650K a year for the privilege of being spied on.
