There is a current trend going on the social media accounts known as “the ten year challenge”. This challenge is basically people posting then and now profile pictures, generally from this year versus 10 years ago. As many people argue, this trend can be perceived as inherently dangerous. This is due to the very plausible facial recognition, and other information, shared without reservations can develop. We at Advanced Private Investigator & Security of Fort Lauderdale Florida would like to elaborate.
What is the Facebook 10 Year Challenge
In various instructions of the meme project, the general idea is for users to post their first profile picture alongside their current profile picture, or a picture from 10 years ago alongside their current profile picture. You may reason that the internet already has access to this data, including the early pictures and any current pictures. This being publicly accessible does however generate an argument about what is safe.
Is the Facebook Challenge a Data Harvesting Ploy
Though people’s photos are readily available at first glance, but not necessarily in chronological order, some say this little project will clearly identify pictures that are all exactly 10 years old. This photo posting date wouldn’t necessarily match the date the picture was taken, though the EXIF metadata on the photo wouldn’t always be reliable for assessing that date anyway. And, there are a few platforms strip EXIF data for privacy. This challenge is having people helpfully adding that context back, such as labeling the pictures “me in 2008 and me in 2018” at the least, where others will add more info by providing more info concerning the photo; people you are with, where it was taken, and so forth. Now with this project, the dataset of carefully curated photos of people from roughly 10 years ago and now is very large and very available.
Face Recognition Deep Learning Algorithm
This user generated meme went viral with little effort. Where popular social media sites claim that they did not start the trend and remind users that they can turn off the facial recognition on or off at any time. Even if this is true, people have unknowingly seen social games and memes designed to extract and collect data. Though many may see the facial recognition algorithm as a harmless, others simply say it is inevitable, where others argue that the facial recognition as respectable, mundane, and risky. Facial recognition technology, particularly the age progression capability can potentially aid in finding missing kids. Using facial recognition technology, police in India tracked down nearly 3,000 missing kids in just four days. A reliable age progression algorithm could be genuinely helpful under these circumstances. One of the most useful tools for targeting advertisement is age recognition. Messaging for age group demographics will likely become commonplace. Some genuinely creepy interactions can be produced with our location tracking, response and purchase behavior, and other signals. Insurance assessment and health care can be a factor in age progression. For example, insurance risks can be higher if you appear to be aging faster than your peers, causing a denial in coverage or expected to pay more. Where real-time facial recognition services were introduced a few years ago to law enforcement and government agencies, it began to raise some serious privacy issues. Not only were suspected criminals tracked, but so were people not committing crimes, namely the protesters and other law enforcement-deemed nuisances.
