WTF Facebook?

Facebook locked me out of my account and then required me to upload a photo of myself to retain access. I am assuming they are using facial recognition to verify I am me. WTF?

They did you a favor. Get off and stay off.

And? Stop using Facebook then

>goybook

And you complied...

People still use facebook?

Find out how dumb the face recognition is, make a shitty symbol drawing of a face in paint.

This happened to my friend, he just sent a picture of him giving them the finger and then started a new account.

This is fake, right? I don't use Facebook because I haven't got any friends, but I don't see how this could possibly work as a security measure.

that's because it's not. facebook is creating a database with these pictures. do you really trust zucc?

some faggot reported your account
and collecting your data

by signing up again, he really showed them

Stop using Facebook already dumb botnet suckers

Absolutely 100% real. Google the text in the screen verbatim.

>still using facebook in 2017

just upload the same profile picture you had, wait some hours and get account back.

Im not even showing my face and still got it back...

I use to have a separate account to upload pictures of things i'd sell on craigslist, this was before craigslist had a decent photo system setup. For some reason it just magically locked me out one day and I had password changed yadda yadda. Spent like 30 minutes before it greeted me with "please upload a picture to verify" mind you i had no friends or pictures of me on that account and I literally use the same password for every account i own so i know i didnt get the wrong password. I'm certain facebook just wanted more information out of me, it was asking me "please select out of the 15 people shown who are friends with this account" and also "please name the people in the photos shown". Shits fucked I stopped using facebook entirely after that. Deleted everything I can on my main account so its completely bare.

You probably uploaded porn or something that looks like porn, something that triggered their algorithm.

just don't go back
you're free now

Take this as an opportunity to stop using that cancerous shit.

Listen to them OP; stop using Facebook.
I did and I'm still here, albeit with no friends but still.

people who only talk to you through social media aren't real friends anyway

>implying I have people speak to me outside of the internet

>facebook

this

They wanted me to upload a passport scan once Lul

>Want to delete my shitbook account because of edgy shit I wrote that can be used against me
>Haven't used it since high school
>Try to login before this new face pic shit
>Locked out of account
>Enter three sets of four digit numbers to unlock account from three different friends
>Recently deceased grandfather
>Two relatives I never talked to even once
Welp.

Happened to me.
> Submit photo
> They still don't let me in my account

Create another account. Use a REAL name (nothing like chinese cartoon characters name) and a pic of a REAL person (Not chinese cartoons).

They'll stop blocking you.

it was on the news this week that they were going to use their facial recognition software to tag you in photos whether you're friends with the person that posted the pic or not.

Send nudes

Remember when Facebook started asking women to upload nude photos so they could hash them and help protect against revenge porn? As I recall, they initially suggested it was entirely automated, then admitted that a person would be reviewing things.

Why is Facebook so consistently terrible when it comes to developing policies and services? It's the dumbest shit in the world with zero thought put behind them.

It's probably not even AI facial recognition just some paid Indians pressing Yes or No to two pictures of you
Much like captcha auto filling services

OP. You're on Sup Forums not reddit.
Get glasses.

the solution is for everyone to stop using facebook. stop giving in. intel agencies are hijacking all popular tech sites and tech manufacturers to install their surveillance and database technology

>using facebook

>people still use facebook

you know that surveilience video .gif or webm from china with people minding their own business in malls and driving around and walking on the crosswalks with their names all displayed over their heads, thats what facebook is has on people also one could possibly conject

I thought Chinese people didn't use Facebook

>using facebook
good goy

They have their own communist party's Facebook.
Contrary to westerns' social medias it has a front door access instead of back door access for security agencies.

Nothing to hide, nothing to say, nothing to fear

>facebook

Why are you using facebook or any social media for that matter? Are you stupid? You are the reason why people don't care about security. Remember early 2000s when you were never supposed to use your real name or identity on internet but now it's a fucking norm and nobody cares. Why people are so stupid?
At my working place, a big one, there's a discussion forum and one guy said his mother gave her banking details via phone to some scammer. He also said "They are usually VERY careful about this stuff.." but it doesn't make any sense. It supposedly took "3 hours of conversation for her to give up the details"... And guess where they found out her phone number? How can grown adults be so stupid.

And yes forgot to add - they emptied the whole account. What the actual fucking fuck?

Upload a picture of Danny Devito and see if it works.
