      I wonder how much use is there in photos of you where you haven’t been tagged (in addition to being bad quality). When it comes to better-quality, tagged ones - you can just ask people not to do so.

          They have other ways. Cross site tracking etc. People without accounts on the platform itself still have profiles on the business side, which is a decent chunk of how they’re making money.

            Right but without tagging they can’t do facial recognition can they.

            What I’m saying is that if there’s a photograph of me on Facebook and someone tags it and goes ah there’s Bob Smith, does that that it’s me or is that just a label that says Bob Smith?
