SUMMARY - Public Participation in Tech Governance

A city government signs a contract with a technology company to deploy facial recognition across public spaces without public hearing, council debate, or community notification. Residents learn of the surveillance infrastructure only after cameras are installed, their opportunity to object foreclosed by decisions made in closed meetings between officials and vendors.
