I did not read it that way. The premise is more like facial detection is a prerequisite for facial recognition, so blocking the former will prevent the latter.

- nl 15y agoQuote from the article: You can see face-detection evading makeup below. The examples that have red squares around them were identified. But the ones that don’t have squares passed facial recognition software undetected Based on that (and the image) one would think that detection and recognition are the same thing. Obviously they aren't - detection is trivial enough to do reliably in Javascript these days, while recognition is an area of active research. The premise is more like facial detection is a prerequisite for facial recognition, so blocking the former will prevent the latter This is true, but isn't what I desire. I'm happy for my face to be detected (eg, cameras use facial detection to take better photos), but I don't want the system to recognize me automatically.
