Description

Megvii, also known as Face++, is a leading facial recognition company in China. Its technology has been linked to the mass surveillance and arbitrary detention of Uyghurs in East Turkistan (renamed Xinjiang by China). Megvii has exported its facial recognition software to other countries, including Thailand and Pakistan. In compliance with Chinese regulations, Megvii is used to authenticate user identities on social platforms. Megvii's proprietary deep learning algorithm, called Brain++, continuously improves the system's accuracy and performance. Megvii's technology is also used to power China's Skynet system, which monitors public spaces with hundreds of millions of cameras.
