There is some sort of implicit agreement between users and social media platforms: we're trading off personal data for a better user experience. A social media platform that you can engage with directly with face emotions, but that requires you to be always in front of the camera for it to work, in a way it's only following in the direction that those platforms are going already.
My motivation for this small browser addon, was to create a way to preview this plausible future of social media. I don’t know, maybe some feature like this is already in the works at FB. Well, now we can try it already and discuss if it’s something we’d like to have or not (you’re welcome Mark).
Technical note: the browser extension analyses the camera images only on your browser. No images are stored or sent to the author or to anybody else.
