Everyone having a FaceTime call does this. Every dash cam does this. Every Ring doorbell and self driving car does this. You can do this with a $10 usb pinhole webcam and an android phone or raspberry Pi.

The problem here is with facial recognition databases, not with people using cameras in public.

PimEyes does not use photos from Facebook or other social media.

PimEyes doesn't use images or data from Facebook or other social media.

It's a click bait article that's been regurgitating through the less informed part of the tech news world because it has Meta in its title and it sounds scary.

Actually good articles covering it would point out that the flaw is entirely a legislative one, where America and a large chunk of the world simply have zero privacy rights or protections.

Dumb, click bait article.

This is about PimEyes, and databases that hoard facial recognition data, not Meta or Rayban or smart glasses.

This has nothing to do with Facebook or Rayban. This can be done with a webcam and a laptop from 2006.

The entire problem here is PimEyes and the fact that it's legal to collect and build a biometrics database in the first place.

Oh so you're the type that sees Hitler invading Poland and thinks "doesn't effect me".

Go volunteer for Putin's army if you love his propaganda so much.

Jesus fucking Christ, the fucking idiocy of thinking that Russia unilaterally invading a country is that country's fault. Thankfully Biden is finally getting lead out of the water which will hopefully prevent this dumbassery in the long term.

Bruh, you're an American repeating Putin's bullshit about Ukraine being run by Nazis.

Americans have no excuse for being so ill informed, so either LMAO at the "using critical thinking", or you're a dumb fucking Russia bot.

Russian thinks he has a wife and kids, when in reality Putin has a baby maker and more cannon fodder.

You happy that your kids will die in Ukraine for no reason?

Lol "real IDE". Name the actual day to day feature(s) that makes it "real". Just saying "you use a little bitch IDE, i use a real IDE" is not an argument.
