Out the door to the airport? Make sure you have your phone, keys, wallet, phone charger... and your TSA checkpoint checklist! If you encounter a TSA facial recognition checkpoint, ask yourself: 🔴 Did I receive clear information about how to opt out of the facial recognition program? 🔴 Did I give consent to have my face scanned? 🔴 Did the tech work on me? If you have an experience at a TSA checkpoint that you'd like to share with us, submit a TSA scorecard at fly.ajl.org #FreedomFlyers✈️

Traveling is already stressful. Now, with TSA’s new facial recognition systems, there's an added risk of facial algorithmic discrimination and disruption of your travel. You can opt out! AJL is fighting to hold the government accountable for this. If you’ve experienced TSA’s facial recognition, share your story by submitting a TSA Scorecard at fly.ajl.org. #FreedomFlyers✈️ #AIHarms #AIBias

A bipartisan group of 14 senators has issued a powerful letter highlighting the urgent risks of TSA's expanding facial recognition program, which poses significant threats to our privacy and civil liberties. The senators' letter calls for a halt to these plans until rigorous oversight is in place. Join these senators and AJL's #FreedomFlyers✈️ campaign to hold TSA accountable for this program. Learn more and take action at fly.ajl.org.

“It’s definitely still worth declining the face scan next time you fly…Every opt-out opportunity is a way to vote for your biometric rights,” according to Dr. Joy Buolamwini in a new article from Vox by Sigal Samuel about TSA face scanning. https://lnkd.in/eaeEmF8W Opting out of TSA facial recognition, in theory, should be simple if the TSA officer is aware of the process. To opt out, stand away from the camera and/or cover your face with a mask, present your ID, and say “I opt out of biometrics. I want the standard verification process.” Share your opt-out experience and become a member of the Opt Out Club at fly.ajl.org. #OptOutClub #FreedomFlyers ✈
