Software parents are such absolute horseshit.

Lol bruh, have some self reflection. People do it because it's easier. If you have the time to have all the hobbies that other people have and to roll your own home servers that's great, but that means you have an above average amount of free time. Otherwise, other people have hobbies that don't include server OS updates and choose to spend their time there and pay for someone else to manage their servers.

The Alan Wake 1 remaster is also published by Epic

Everyone having a FaceTime call does this. Every dash cam does this. Every Ring doorbell and self driving car does this. You can do this with a $10 usb pinhole webcam and an android phone or raspberry Pi.

The problem here is with facial recognition databases, not with people using cameras in public.

PimEyes does not use photos from Facebook or other social media.

PimEyes doesn't use images or data from Facebook or other social media.

It's a click bait article that's been regurgitating through the less informed part of the tech news world because it has Meta in its title and it sounds scary.

Actually good articles covering it would point out that the flaw is entirely a legislative one, where America and a large chunk of the world simply have zero privacy rights or protections.

Dumb, click bait article.

This is about PimEyes, and databases that hoard facial recognition data, not Meta or Rayban or smart glasses.

This has nothing to do with Facebook or Rayban. This can be done with a webcam and a laptop from 2006.

The entire problem here is PimEyes and the fact that it's legal to collect and build a biometrics database in the first place.
