We're at the point where you could snap a person's face with Google Goggles (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hhgfz0zPmH4) and find out their entire life story: their employment, their friends, what they looked like before they dyed their hair. I don't know where the societal breaking point for pervasive, omnipresent technology is... but I think we're getting close.http://www.downloadsquad.com/2010/05/20/google-is-torn-on-the-topic-of-face-recognition-to-roll-out-or/
Just wondering people's thoughts on face recognition, Google has the technology and data now that you could just take and upload a photo of someone's face and you'd find everything about them, which could be very handy in finding information out about people or tagging photos but Google already has enough of our data and there's obvious privacy concerns.
Thoughts on this technology, do you want it to be released?
