There were plenty of suspenseful moments in the 2002 film, The Minority Report. Car chases, fight scenes, plot twists, and humans that could predict murders before they happened.

What are your thoughts on the ethical implications when these technologies are no longer science fiction?
Does your company use advance ID tracking methods including facial recognition?
What is next?
