That is horrifying.

I don't suppose there'd be any way to know if companies are using this neo-phrenology during interviews?

That could never run into problems, whatsoever. /s

Sounds like the plot of Condor, the recent TV series, waiting to happen.

They claim to be able to recognize a terrorist. Seems more like an joke to me.

What they probably do (among other things) is racial profiling: brown person with beard -> bigger chances of being a terrorist, white person with hipster glasses -> less chances of being a terrorist.

Madness!

I guess with images of this sort, it might judge that the person could be dangerous, but just on the looks of your face alone, that is just stereotyping done as a [very suspect] business.
