Italian police use facial recognition on No Tav protesters; gait analysis denied

Italian police reportedly used the Sari facial recognition system to identify about 300 No Tav protesters from demonstration footage, with claims of mass registration. The Interior Ministry denies experimenting with gait recognition on protest videos, though police are studying the technology. This raises civil liberties concerns and marks a notable expansion of surveillance tactics against protest movements.
