Facial Recognition on Facebook?

Did you participate in the "Ten Year Challenge" on Facebook? I didn't, not because I was thinking about the facial recognition software mentioned in the article I've linked though. I didn't participate because I just didn't feel like it. I don't have very many people on my facebook and they all know what I look like...and they all know what I looked like 10 years ago too. My husband DID participate and he is super paranoid about things like cyber security so I wonder what he's going to say about the article!

No, I don't usually do things others do. I'm not one to follow trends these days.

I did not either although it was kind of fun to see friends and how different they looked back then. It is already creepy that often when you go to tag someone in Facebook, it KNOWS which person it is!

Totally creepy! Facebook has tried to tag old pictures of me as my sister though, she looked exactly like me. Like twin level.

I did it it was hilarious! In fact I heard about the facial recognition stuff, but I got nothing to hide, and I am not a CIA agent so it's fine by me. However what I enjoyed the most was the memes that were made to make fun of us people who participated in the #10YearsChallenge, they made me laugh so hard!
