Sure you are one of the 120 million users who downloaded #FaceApp and seen your future self 30 years to come!
so what is just behind the picture of your future self that poses a privacy alert to over 120 million users around the globe.
The application now holds over 120 million fresh faces all over the universe, this can be used to improve the functionality of the app #AI (Artificial Intelligence) and be extended for use for facial recognition.
although some tech savvies say it can’t be used for facial recognition, to what extent we are sure the beholders of such massive data are not intending to outgrow the mass data gathered!
in my imaginable world, the Russian-made-based application is now receiving offers to sell the mass data from various intelligence entities from around the globe, the mass data is potentially to be used to improve the (CCTV) surveillance systems in the most app used countries….yeah, just fresh data! Facebook is getting old now!
later on, the #FaceApp was able to develop a facial recognition signature that would infiltrate personal access to valuable information through unlocking the facial signature! who knows!
Or, sell the data to airport immigration surveillance to identify and stamp the last visited country (last time used\country of download) so it can be matched with the visa stamps on the passport! who knows!
Today, the mass is slowly waking up to a privacy threat although still being numb to all privacy threats but pleasure!
#FaceApp has given themselves the right to use your own data for their own best use, and you have given them permission ALREADY!
5. How can I delete my data?
Just deleting the app won’t get rid of the photos FaceApp may have in the cloud. “For the fastest processing, we recommend sending the requests from the FaceApp mobile app using ‘Settings->Support->Report a bug’ with the word ‘privacy’ in the subject line. We are working on the better UI [user interface] for that,” :- referenced.
