Glyza: Facial recognition are camera-based information detectors that scan the face to access an

information. Now, in the modern world, facial recognition is used to monitor the people, catch criminals,
find missing persons, find alleged criminals, locate people, identify religion or ethnicity of a person.

RICHELLE: While facial recognition is utilized for proper use, however, some use of facial recognition
may also have disadvantage that crosses the ethical and moral rights of a person.

Allysadel: According to C.S Lewis, scientocracy is the practice of basing public policy on science. as we
observe on our public policies, facial recognition is implemented in some establishments for some
confidential reasons. However, ethically speaking, some facial recognition invades the privacy of a
person, in which, should be prohibited.

Glyza: In addition, to relate it to martin Heidegger’s view on technology, people are becoming slave to
their inventions to the point that technology is becoming like God.

Richelle; Lastly, to relate it on Jason Hickel’s perspective, facial recognition creates division between
people based on their economic status. In this, we can say that the authorized person should treat
people fairly.

Richelle: From these philosophical implications, that facial recognition imposes, we propose the
following solution;

CAROL:

1. CCTV facial recognition should be limited to airports, bank or any establishments that protects
the privacy of a person
2. The information disclosed should not be to the extent that will cause harm or invade the privacy
if the person
3. The facial recognition information should not be a full basis alone when conducting investigation
4. The authorized individuals should be held accountable to any disclosed information

SOFIA:

To summarize the implications of facial recognition in the modern science and technology, privacy is the
aim concern/issue that is ethically or morally neglected. While facial recognition may have an
advantage, its disadvantage still crosses the rights of a person. Together with C.S Lewis, Martin
Heidegger and Jason Hickel’s perspective on science and technology, we have reached to many solutions
where human rights are attained. With this, we have learned that S&T should regard the ethical and
moral standards, and abide the law to protect not just the welfare of the people but also of nature.

CAROL: Now, should facial recognition be accessible to public?
