EXCLUSIVE: FBI’s AI Surveillance Tool Lingers Amid Privacy Backlash
The FBI is quietly expanding a machine learning system that scans citizenship records, threatening a privacy firestorm—and potentially a constitutional crisis. Internal docs reveal the tool, tested in Texas, can predict citizenship fraud without a warrant, drawing fury from civil liberties groups. As legal challenges mount, the bureau’s limited funding curbs deployment, but early-adopter states fear identity profiling on a massive scale. This algorithmic dragnet could redefine domestic spying, raising urgent questions for C-suite risk management.
