FB Upload Celebrity Photo w/YOUR Name

 Confuse Mark Zuckerberg or Give him your "Privacy Rights" for Facial Profiling 


Everytime you post a picture ( or someone else posts one to FB) 

Do you realize that someone is tracking 
-Who you are, 
-What you like, 
-Who your friends are, 
-What you did last nite, 
-Where you are today and and and...

If  a Newspaper reporter takes your picture - you have to give permission to post it 
or if policemen takes your picture and shows it on Channel 5 news TV 
online
you may have a problem with that. 

However when YOU or someone else posts a picture to Facebook- 
Do you realize someone is collecting your   “biometric data collection” scheme and that it violates privacy and adversely impacts consumers...  
according to the The Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), in a complaint file to the FTC.


 How to OPT out of FACIAL RECOGNITION on Facebook

1. Disable the Facebook facial recognition auto-suggest function for photo tagging.
Go to Account (upper right corner of homepage) - Privacy Settings - Custom settings (bottom middle) - Suggest photos of me to friends - Enabled/Disabled (check Disabled)
2. Vigilantly monitor your notifications about being tagged in photos so you can be in control of this data.
3. Upload pictures of celebrities or other people and tag them as yourself.  The point is to pollute Facebook’s facial recognition database of you so that its ability to identify you is weakened.
 4. Request Facebook to remove your "summary information" from its facial recognition database (hat tip to PCWorld).
