Giant Social Networking website, Facebook has planned to use your Facebook profile photos for its facial recognition technology. Facebook will use its user’s profile pics to its facial recognition database to speed up the process of photo tagging. According to Facebook’s Chief Privacy Officer Erin Egan “Our goal is to facilitate tagging so that people know when there are photos of them on our service,”.
