FB is most likely trying to ward off spammers with this idea. Generating unique faces per spam-bot is easy now, for sophisticated spammers, then for every spammer in a few months. The poster is trying to say that this FB effort won't work well and is already only adversely affecting the most stupid and trusting.
- pierrec 9y agoGood point, I was only considering the case where FB uses this technique to verify an existing user's identity using facial recognition (which seems like a "logical" use case). I missed the part where they said they might use it for account creation as well (which makes less sense and seems like a pretty baroque, intrusive and ineffective captcha).
