Facial Recognition

What has the impact on society of facial recognition software been so far? How may that change as it becomes more popular and people carry it around in their pockets? For what groups in the population is it positive and for what groups is it primarily negative? What are the implications for privacy? (If you write about a right to privacy, you must discuss what exactly that legal right is and on what it is based.)
