Abstract

The postponed 2020 Tokyo summer Olympics will be the first Olympic games to officially use facial recognition technology as a security measure. The use of such advanced technology to protect the Olympics continues a trend of Olympic organizers employing the latest in technological advances. This trend started in the early 1980s and continues to the present day. The following paper identifies four thematic areas: military support, privacy, cybersecurity, and private company involvement to analyse how the initial use of technology as a security measure set precedents that last to the present day.

“世界将关注，国家安全局也将关注！”：奥运会技术与安全史

摘要

被推迟的 2020 年东京夏季奥运会将是第一届正式使用面部识别技术作为安全措施的奥运会。使用这种先进技术来保护奥运会延续了奥运会组织者采用最新技术进步的趋势。这种趋势始于 1980 年代初，并一直持续到今天。以下论文确定了四个主题领域：军事支持、隐私、网络安全和私营公司参与，以分析最初使用技术作为安全措施如何开创持续至今的先例。
