Students at the University of Waterloo discovered that the M&M's vending machines on campus were equipped with facial recognition technology, prompting concerns about privacy. The machines, provided by Adaria Vending Services and owned by Mars, were found to be collecting data such as presence, estimated age, and gender without individual association. Despite assurances from the Invenda Group that the technology does not store or transmit personal data, the university has requested the machines to be removed and the software disabled. If not, a student plans to file a complaint with the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario.
