    Facial-recognition surveillance trial

    A month-long facial-recognition trial involving South Yorkshire Police took place at Meadowhall without the public being informed during the trial. The operator later said that the data had been deleted immediately afterward. Privacy campaigners characterised the episode as an example of problematic cooperation between police and private companies in public-facing spaces.
