Face Scanner
Throughout the nation and the world, the debate on the privacy implications of face recognition and other surveillance technologies is heating up. In January 2001, the city of Tampa, Florida used the technology to scan the faces of people in crowds at the Super Bowl, comparing them with images in a database of digital mug shots. Privacy International subsequently gave the 2001 Big Brother Award for "Worst Public Official" to the City of Tampa for spying on Super Bowl attendees. Tampa then installed cameras equipped with face recognition technology in their Ybor City nightlife district, where they have encountered opposition from people wearing masks and making obscene gestures at the cameras. In late August 2001, a member of the Jacksonville, Florida City Council proposed legislation to keep the technology out of Jacksonville.
The Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services gave a $ 150,000 grant to the city of Virginia Beach to help the city obtain face recognition cameras to look for criminal suspects and missing children. Although officials had initially expressed mixed feelings about the technology, the city council voted on November 13 to install the software at the oceanfront.
In the wake of the September 2001 terrorist attacks on the U. S., privacy advocates, citizen groups, political leaders, and the manufacturers of the technology itself are debating whether these technologies should be more widely used, and if so, how they should be regulated to protect the privacy of the public. Some airports are considering installing face recognition cameras as a security measure. However, T.F. Green International Airport in Providence, Rhode Island, one of the first airports to consider it, decided in January 2002 that they would not install it after all, citing the possibility of false matches and other technological shortcomings of facial recognition systems.
What did the Super Bowl attendees NOT do in their reaction to the installation of scanners?
选项
A、Covering their faces with something.
B、Opposing the scanning by protesting.
C、Making obscene gestures at the cameras.
D、Wearing masks when attending the game.
答案
B
解析
这是一道细节题。只要找到相关的段落,仔细查找就行了。当时人们没有提出抗议。他们只是wearing masks and making obscene gestures at the cameras来表示反对而已。
