UK gov not complying w/ 11yr old old legal order to delete millions of biometric photos of innocent ppl from a watch list ‘in months, not years’ (https://www.judiciary.uk/wp-content/uploads/JCO/Documents/Judgments/r-rmc-fj-metropolitan-police-commissioner-22062012.pdf) as database “doesn’t have the bulk delete capability” (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/oct/29/britain-omni-surveillance-society-watchdog-warns). Gov used to claim too costly to check what happened after custody (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/5a808a3b40f0b62305b8bbe3/2017-02-23_Custody_Image_Review.pdf). That seems a system prerequisite, not an excuse. An open and shut case for data protection by design if there ever was one, but where is the enforcement?
