Smile: Your Selfie Is A Mugshot For The NSA
"According to the documents, the agency intercepts “millions” of images per day — including about 55,000 “facial recognition quality images” — although it is not clear how many images the agency has amassed in total at this point. The NSA describes facial recognition technology as offering “tremendous untapped potential” for tracking intelligence targets."
Suddenly Nokia's excellent cameras don't look that good

But if the NSA want to track me on
the internet looking at fat lesbians then I don't mind
Why, a) joke b) their cameras are likely to make quite a few of those usable photos.
facial recognition quality would be like vga if it were full face. it doesn't need to be 50MP
it doesn't say where they are getting these images from. i wonder if we are talking about scraping them from the likes of twitter. or sucking them straight out of the pipes. or if your automatic photo backup involves the nsa.
