Where do I sign up? I was forced today to accept Facebook's new settings and I was presented with an option to either allow facebook to process my data for face recognition or not. Choosing not does not allow you to move forward in the settings, and it is deeply confusing - there is an "accept and continue" button, but there is some rather small text that states choosing accept and continue will enable face recognition. Closing the browser and reopening it at this point shows the same text, and only the option to accept and continue. Doing so and then checking settings will show face recognition to be disabled, but I am no longer sure what I accepted and continued with.
The whole scheme is scammy as anything. The text presented is something along the lines of "disabling this feature will allow other people to impersonate you" which at best is nasty fear mongering.
Fuck those assholes.
