The FBI and American Immigration and Customs officials are using facial recognition software to scan states' driving licence photograph databases to look for suspects and possible witnesses.
There is no formal process to apply for access to individual states' databases, and in some cases getting their mitts on the snaps requires nothing more than an email from an investigator. No one applying for a driving licence has consented to have their picture used in this way.
