Abstract
The postponed 2020 Tokyo summer Olympics will be the first Olympic games to officially use facial recognition technology as a security measure. The use of such advanced technology to protect the Olympics continues a trend of Olympic organizers employing the latest in technological advances. This trend started in the early 1980s and continues to the present day. The following paper identifies four thematic areas: military support, privacy, cybersecurity, and private company involvement to analyse how the initial use of technology as a security measure set precedents that last to the present day.
