Biotelemetrics: Towards a Peer to Peer Privacy Planet?
“Biotelemetrics” names a diverse set of practices, technologies and disciplines oriented toward the non-invasive determination of human identity at a distance. Facial recognition, iris scans, gait signatures, and residual DNA analysis all compete with dozens of other technologies to render the holy grail of contemporary security science: the cheap, reliable and anonymous apprehension of human identity. This talk will review emerging IEC/ITU/ISO standards for biotelemetrics and the technologies likely to emerge from them, with a focus on the socio-political effects of ubiquitous biotelemetrics. The talk will offer a model for a “Peer to Peer Privacy Planet” in which the commons, and not the State, becomes the most effective guardian of individual privacy and global security.
