My Face is Not Boarding Pass

Don’t want your data used by third parties after surreptitiously being forced into using DigiYatra? Tired of Facial Recognition Tech lurking around every street corner? Us too. We collaborated with artist Kruttika Susarla (@kruttika)  for the privacy-concerned digital nagrik to voice concerns without uttering a word. Tell the world (and the security personnel at your airport gate) that your face is not your boarding pass!

DigiYatra uses Facial Recognition Technology to *try* and make the check-in process quicker. However, what it ends up doing is relying on insufficient privacy safeguards to collect and process your biometrics and even share them with its partners, without the necessary accountability or transparency mechanisms.. Wanna learn more? You’ll find a Know Your Rights pamphlet along with the order :) 

IFF is a community-funded organisation working to uphold Indian digital liberties, born out of the #SaveTheInternet campaign in 2016. When you’re donning our designs, you’re one of us. Join us in this mission. Next time you’re boarding –  resist surveillance, reject DigiYatra.
