Facebook has said it will shut down its face-recognition system and delete the faceprints of more than 1 billion people.
&ldquo;This change will represent one of the largest shifts in facial recognition usage in the technology's history,&rdquo; a blog post from the social networking giant said.
&ldquo;More than a third of Facebook's daily active users have opted in to our Face Recognition setting and are able to be recognized, and its removal will result in the deletion of more than a billion people's individual facial recognition templates.&rdquo; He said the company was trying to weigh the positive use cases for the technology &ldquo;against growing societal concerns, especially as regulators have yet to provide clear rules.&rdquo; Facebook's about-face follows its Thursday announcement that it was renaming itself Meta in order to focus on building technology for what it envisions as the next iteration of the internet -- the &ldquo;metaverse.&rdquo; The company is also facing perhaps its biggest public relation crisis to date after leaked documents from whistleblower Frances Haugen showed that it has known about the harms its products cause and often did little or nothing to mitigate them.
More than a third of Facebook's daily active users have opted in to have their faces recognized by the social network's system.
But Facebook has recently begun scaling back its use of facial recognition after introducing it more than a decade ago.
The company in 2019 ended its practice of using face recognition software to identify users' friends in uploaded photos and automatically suggesting they &ldquo;tag&rdquo; them. Facebook was sued in Illinois over the tag suggestion feature.

Facebook to end Facial Recognition, to delete data of a billion users 

Facebook's to delete to delete more than 1 billion face ‘templates’, moves comes after years of intense scrutiny and accusations that the company has been reckless with user data. 


Facebook hoping to reduce scrutiny, ends Facial Recognition 

The company said it will delete more than 1 billion people&rsquo;s individual facial recognition templates as a result of this change.

Facebook has said it will shut down its face-recognition system and delete the faceprints of more than 1 billion people.. The company said in a&nbsp;blog post&nbsp;that more than a third of Facebook&rsquo;s daily active users, or over 600 million accounts, had opted into the use of the face recognition technology.
&ldquo;This change will represent one of the largest shifts in facial recognition usage in the technology's history,&rdquo;&nbsp;the social networking giant said.
The shift comes as the&nbsp;company assess the positive use cases for the technology &ldquo;against growing societal concerns, especially as regulators have yet to provide clear rules.&rdquo; Big tech giants are facing increasing resistance against artificial intelligence-based facial recognition.Amazon, Microsoft and Google&nbsp;have also been sued&nbsp;for their use of facial recognition software.&nbsp;Facebook's use of the technology had led to a legal settlement that cost the company $650 million in 2020. In that case, Facebook was accused of illegally collecting biometric data about users without their consent. Facebook&nbsp;that is reinventing itself as Meta will require support in from regulators, industry peers and potential users for its shift in the augmented reality world. Experts say moves such may reduce the intense scrutiny from regulators and privacy advocates, who say the company has been reckless with user data.
