Seriously, my paranoid level has never been so high.
- Deestan 13y agoParanoia can be a symptom of growing or oncoming depression. You should take that seriously: At least take a few days off and try to get a feel for your current mental state.
- stewbrew 13y agoStudies have shown that depressed people sometimes have a more adequate world view.
- samweinberg 13y agoYep, that's called depressive realism. It's pretty bizarre to think about.
- DennisP 13y agoIt's not paranoia if they're really out to get you.
- tommis 13y agoNot too paranoid, considering the front page of this project says "OpenBR is a collaborative research project started by The MITRE Corporation". What is MITRE? http://www.mitre.org/work/hs_sedi/ http://www.mitre.org/work/hs_sedi/ : Homeland Security Systems Engineering and Development Institute—or HS SEDI ... http://www.mitre.org/work/intel.html http://www.mitre.org/work/intel.html : Just about all of MITRE's engineering and science disciplines are involved with improving our sponsors' intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) activities.

Most face recognition technology works very well on mugshots. Frontal Faces -- with almost consistent lighting and alignment. These technologies do not perform well on personal photos.
