Dutch Police Will No Longer Use Algorithm That Predicts Who Will Become Violent

I am shocked that this technology was used at all in the EU, isn't that predictive policing illegal Here ?

Or is it because the Dutch politicians are getting snagged by these algorithms?

"Especially people with Moroccan, Antillean, or Somali backgrounds were considered a higher risk than others"

Minority Report 2: racism boogaloo.

now it will just be a biological algorithm instead :)

I am shocked that such technology was used in the past in the EU, isn't that illegal?
