Comment on Someone Put Facial Recognition Tech onto Meta's Smart Glasses to Instantly Dox Strangers

A company called Clearview AI broke that unwritten rule and developed a powerful facial recognition system using billions of images scraped from social media. Primarily, Clearview sells its product to law enforcement. Clearview has also explored a pair of smart glasses that would run its facial recognition technology. The company signed a contract with the U.S. Air Force on a related study.
Just another reason to not post all your images to social media. Share with family/friends who care but thats it.
Do not share the image in a private Facebook group. Don’t post it on popular direct messaging services.
The only way (which I still don’t trust), some privacy-preserving E2E encrypted file storage server or (which I trust) via your own Matrix server.
private Facebook group
Does such a thing actually exist? Seems that “private” and “Facebook” really shouldn’t be in the same sentence together.
People (the general populace) think that if a group visibility is set to Private, then it’s truly private 🤷🏻

Right?! That is all it takes to save your privacy is just not having social media but noone is willing to do that.

The main concern I have is unavoidably having my picture taken. Say I go to a family gathering, of course they will take my picture if it’s a big event. They then will probably share it everywhere. I can’t reasonably say “don’t post this picture on the internet” they probably will.

In such a sitiation, I usually just ask to be out of the picture.
