> If the technology is so spot on that 99% of the time you commit the crime you'll get caught

And in 1% of the time[1], you are an innocent who had nothing to do with the crime. Now you have to spend your time: getting arrested, spending time with lawyers, getting people to collaborate your alibi (<- In the best case! Otherwise you're f'ed).

If you want to make a case for facial recognition, criminal justice is one of worst possible cases you could make for it.

[1] I don't accept your claim of 99% accuracy when this is applied on a massive scale. Maybe I'm wrong, so let's go with this number
