Facebook now has a facial recognition feature that helps Facebook users to combat fake accounts using other people’s photos.
It alerts Facebook users whenever a photo or a video is posted to the user’s timeline.
Facebook facial recognition is known for its user-friendliness and high verification rates.
The world’s best social platform is also planning to reintroduce its facial recognition features both in Europe and Canada that means Facebook will tag you in photos and videos automatically, instead of a friend tagging you on Facebook.
How does Facebook Face Recognition Work?
Facebook creates a template by using your already existing images including your profile photo and your tagged photos.
If an image is uploaded, Facebook checks for similarities between the uploaded image and your already existing image, and if an image is identified being similar to yours, you will be automatically tagged to that images.
