The thing that annoys me the most about this is that it’s actually a feature I want. And it’s something well within the realms of possibility for on-device compute (our next microcontroller chip will have an inference engine that can run models that do this). But I absolutely do not trust Meta to do this in a trustworthy way. Any vendor shipping this should be able to provide independently auditable guarantees that the data used for facial recognition cannot ever leave the device.
