“…In-situ studies and experience samples are beneficial for gaining insights into the user's perspective, for example, about how the use of wearable technologies may ultimately violate the privacy of non-users [46,51,56,57,78]. However, unique challenges arise when HCI research takes place in natural contexts, where technologies and experiences are evaluated in-situ and where there is less control over the experiences and behaviors of human participants [19,22,23,72].…”

Facial analysis applications are increasingly being applied to inform decision-making processes. However, as global reports of unfairness emerge, governments, academia and industry have recognized the ethical limitations and societal implications of this technology. Alongside initiatives that aim to formulate ethical frameworks, we believe that the public should be invited to participate in the debate. In this paper, we discuss Biometric Mirror, a case study that explored opinions about the ethics of an emerging technology. The interactive application distinguished demographic and psychometric information from people's facial photos and presented speculative scenarios with potential consequences based on their results. We analyzed the interactions with Biometric Mirror and media reports covering the study. Our findings demonstrate the nature of public opinion about the technology's possibilities, reliability, and privacy implications. Our study indicates an opportunity for case study-based digital ethics research, and we provide practical guidelines for designing future studies.
