Facebook Checks Out Some Familiar Faces

Facebook has introduced a facial recognition tool to make image suggestion easier. But it’s prompted warnings over privacy settings and further calls to change the balance towards user confidentiality.

The new tool builds on a previous change allowing users to select multiple images with the same person in and tag them all at once, rather than have people type in the details for every image. (As the Facebook blog notes, that’s a particularly tiresome task with albums (such as wedding albums) where the same faces appear over and over again.)

The new tool will automatically scan an uploaded image and compare the faces in it to other photos in the albums of the users and their friends. If it spots a “match” it will ask the user to confirm that the identification is correct and let them automatically tag it with a single click. If the user uploads a batch of pictures, the tool will allow an automatic tag of all images of the same person.

Facebook notes that if users want to avoid their name being suggested for this auto-tagging, they can click on “Customize Settings” in their privacy settings section, then untick “Suggest photos of me to friends.”
