Since launching MegaPixels in April 2019, several of the datasets mentioned have disappeared and one surveillance workshop was canceled. Below is a list of responses, reactions, and press:

June 2019

June 2: A person tracking surveillance workshop at CVPR has been canceled due to the Duke MTMC dataset no longer being available https://reid-mct.github.io/2019/

June 1: The Brainwash face/head dataset has been taken down by its author https://exhibits.stanford.edu/data/catalog/sx925dc9385. "This data was removed from access at the request of the depositor."

May 28: The Microsoft Celeb (MS-Celeb-1M) 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.

April 20: Washington Post Editorial Board responds to Financial Times article based on data surfaced in MegaPixels project: Opinion | Microsoft worked with a Chinese military university on AI. Does that make sense?
April 19: Financial Times feature on MegaPixels project: Who's Using Your Face by Madhumita Murgia
April 19: MegaPixels data cited by report in Financial Times: Western AI researchers partnered with Chinese surveillance firm by Madhumita Murgia
