Facebook to roll out facial recognition tool globally, causing privacy uproar
According to the National, Facebook is rolling out face recognition privacy features for all of its users. The company indicated it will set the feature to ‘off’ by default, and users will receive a notification about the new privacy setting in their news feed, which will provide an option to turn it on. Fox Business reports that the feature, as opposed to just suggesting tags, will recognise and notify you, in case your profile photo is used by someone else or you appear in photos where you have not been tagged.
