| #2 An people still ask me why I don't have Facebook/ social media accounts and don't post a few selfies. Now think deeper on this. Facebook has billions of photo's. Facebook is in it for the $$$$$. Why would you think they aren't trying (or already have) sold the collection to certain governments, Political/Cause Groups or businesses? I could also many profitable applications for High End retail sales. Matching facial ID with Facebook/Social Media interest data. Also a stores LOSS PREVENTION Dept. would benefit. |
