5 Unexpected Places You Can Be Tracked With Facial Recognition Technology

5 Unexpected Places You Can Be Tracked With Facial Recognition Technology

Facial recognition technology has become more advanced, and it's increasingly popping up in two realms: law enforcement and commerce.
 
 
 
 
 

Earlier this summer Facebook rolled out facial recognition software that identifies users even when they appear in untagged photos. Like every other time the social networking site has introduced a creepy, invasive new feature, they made it the default setting without telling anyone.
