Key Findings
- In complete secrecy, Iranian authorities bought FindFace, a Russian facial recognition software, in 2019, as confirmed by contracts obtained by Forbidden Stories and its partners.
- FindFace can identify faces in public spaces in a matter of seconds and run them through databases maintained by the regime’s security services.
- The Iranian security apparatus is attempting to conceal this acquisition with shell companies.
- Several security agencies are involved, including the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps and the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence.
As they bomb Iran, Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu are calling on its people to rise up against the dictatorial regime, which is shaken but still standing. Iranian authorities have a sophisticated weapon for monitoring the population: a powerful Russian facial recognition software — acquired in complete secrecy. Thanks to a data leak from Russian and Iranian companies, Forbidden Stories and its partners reveal the workings of this mass surveillance system.
Yes, lets all shitpost US/West sponsored propaganda about Iran, as the two biggest Psycho nations attacks it for no reason what so ever. And ‘coincidentally’ at the time where the orange buffoon scream about “oppressed Iranians” in a lame attempt at creating a new fake color-revolution.
“The Eyes of Iran partners: Le Monde, Paper Trail Media, Der Spiegel, Der Standard, Tamedia et ZDF. In collaboration with The Signals Network.” - NONE of those EU papers have anything to do with ‘truth’ or ‘journalism’, and anyone ‘partnering’ with them are the exact same lying SOB’s…
Why on Earth would anyone repost this blatant propaganda garbage at this particular time ?!?
