Facebook's Facial Recognition

Did you know Facebook uses facial recognition to identify your face on every single picture you upload?

According to a new report by Nightline, Facebook has a massive collection of more than 20 billion photos of our faces. Sure, it might be cool and efficient right now...but what is Facebook (and possibly the government) going to do with these pictures in the future? Think about it, Facebook already knows our likes, dislikes, where we live, our family members, our best friends, and now our faces! They are slowly creating an encyclopedia of the human race...craaaazy!

What do you think? Is Facebook's facial recognition software cool or creepy???
