Very glad to see our blogpost out in this excellent VB debate! In the blog we analyse the AIA's exception to the prohibition on real-time biometric identification system, and emphasise the potential risks that may come from this exception.

The AI Act's exceptions to the prohibition on real-time biometric identification reveal a lack of harmonization and clear safeguards, potentially exacerbating risks to fundamental rights and regulatory coherence, according to ALICE GIANNINI and SARAH TAS.

🚨Interested in what I think connects the #CJEU’s decisions in Kočner, KS and KD, together with the recent ST v Frontex, Hamoudi v Frontex and WS v Frontex?
