It is perhaps technically possible to limit it only to serious crimes and ensure that not all information about you would pop up on the screen. But clear legal framework would be required and applied in practice. I elaborated on this a bit on my LinkedIn page.

The UK is expanding the use of live facial recognition technology. This can be a problem from the point of view of @echr.coe.int as this is an interference with the right to privacy under Article 8. The case Glukhin v Russia is a reference point here. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Government expands police use of live facial recognition vans
The Home Office says the technology helps locate suspects but civil liberties groups warn of heightened surveillance.

Our newest guest editorial is by Nils Muznieks - the former @coe.int Human Rights Commissioner reflecting on his time in office. It is insightful, original and full of vision. It is behind the paywall for now but it will be in open access when the issue is published online. brill.com/view/journal...

@tomswarbrick.bsky.social on @lbc.co.uk discussed the issue of letting a person into the UK from Gaza for med treatment. This is a decision of UK courts and has nothing to do with the European Court. The mantra that reform UK keeps reiterating about foreign judgments is a pure manipulation here.

We hope that, while enjoying the summer sun, you’ll also take a moment to read about a largely overlooked area of @echr.coe.int case law concerning the rights of future retirees. A new paper by Kevin Hartmann-Cortes explores the admissibility of such claims.

The UK government is planing to increase the time for settlement to 10 year to those who are already here and started their process under the old rules. This is not only time what matters but it includes massive expense. This seems rather unfair.

The ECtHR's 2024 climate cases were decidedly dogmatic concerning extraterritorial jurisdiction. Lea Raible analyzes this - and its interplay with positive obligations - in the first article of our upcoming special issue on the climate rulings, co-edited by Armando Rocha & @cohelongo.bsky.social.

The @coe.int Parliamentary Assembly elected three new judges of the European Cout of Human Rights: Vahe Grigoryan for Armenia, Vasilka Sancin for Slovenia and Canolic Mingorance Cairat for Andorra. The election of Slovenian Judge also means that we will soon have a new president of the Court.
