I'm guessing it's pretty easy for organizations to browse the web, find
images containing faces, index the faces, and tie that to extant records of
people's identities. There's

It seems more than two people are in agreement with what should be done.
Someone should start or add on to a wiki page on Libreplanet wiki if these

And even if you think they don't have it, they probably have the data
of everybody else you know... so they have it.
