- bartl 16y agoThey get you to put names on faces in pictures.
- vmind 16y agoOnly sounds like identifying already tagged images from the article, no extra information they don't already have.
- edmccaffrey 16y agoHow can they use that for authentication if they don't already have the data to see if your answer is right?
- GBKS 16y agoThat's why I'm thinking that they don't use it for authentication. There were quite a few steps to go through, so my assumption would be that some steps are used for authentication and others are used to collect data. Man, I'm realizing I must sound paranoid about Facebook.
- stellar678 16y agoI guess it's possible that they're doing the same thing as recaptcha - for some questions they already know the answer, others they're going to use your answer as a data point.
- GBKS 16y agoSee my reply to another comment - the data doesn't exist. In some images I was supposed to identify random objects or blanks walls as my friends. So they do use this to train their algorithm and/or complete their database.
