+</section><p>Since publishing MegaPixels, several of the datasets mentioned have disappeared and one surveillance workshop was canceled. Below is a list of notable responses, reactions, and press about this project.</p>
+<h5>Recent Events</h5>
+<p>June 2019</p>
+<ul>
+<li>June 2: The Duke MTMC dataset website (<a href="http://vision.cs.duke.edu/DukeMTMC/">http://vision.cs.duke.edu/DukeMTMC/</a>) has been taken down without any reason provided</li>
+<li>June 2: A person tracking surveillance workshop at CVPR has been canceled due to the Duke MTMC dataset no longer being available <a href="https://reid-mct.github.io/2019/">https://reid-mct.github.io/2019/</a></li>
+<li>June 1: The Brainwash face/head dataset has been taken down by its author <a href="https://exhibits.stanford.edu/data/catalog/sx925dc9385">https://exhibits.stanford.edu/data/catalog/sx925dc9385</a>. "This data was removed from access at the request of the depositor."</li>
+<li>June 1: The <a href="/dataset/uccs">UCCS dataset page</a> has been updated with a response from the author to clarify that he did not provide any face data to government agencies. Funding was for technology transfer.</li>
+</ul>
+<p>May 2019</p>
+<ul>
+<li>May 31: Semantic Scholar appears to be censoring citations used in this project. Two of the citations linking the Brainwash dataset to research from the National University of Defense Technology (NUDT) in China have disabled. <a href="https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/A-Replacement-Algorithm-of-Non-Maximum-Suppression-Zhao-Wang/591a4bfa6380c9fcd5f3ae690e3ac5c09b7bf37b">NUDT citation 1</a>, <a href="https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/Localized-region-context-and-object-feature-fusion-Li-Dou/b02d31c640b0a31fb18c4f170d841d8e21ffb66c">NUDT citation 2</a>, and the <a href="https://www.semanticscholar.org/paper/End-to-End-People-Detection-in-Crowded-Scenes-Stewart-Andriluka/1bd1645a629f1b612960ab9bba276afd4cf7c666">original paper</a> show that the NUDT citation has been censored (see references)</li>
+<li>May 28: The Microsoft Celeb (MS Celeb) face dataset website is now 404 and all the download links were deactivated. It appears that Microsoft Research has shuttered access to their MS Celeb dataset. Yet it remains available, as of June 2, on <a href="https://ibug.doc.ic.ac.uk/resources/lightweight-face-recognition-challenge-workshop/">Imperial College London's website</a> and on <a href="https://msropendata.com/datasets/98fdfc70-85ee-5288-a69f-d859bbe9c737">https://msropendata.com/datasets/98fdfc70-85ee-5288-a69f-d859bbe9c737</a></li>
