The existence of this article is confusing to me. FB doesn’t need to “scrape” their own site, and they don’t care about whether you set your photos to public or private.
Much like “X”, formerly known as twitter, I fail to understand why anyone uses F-book.
Training for what exactly?
Why, it’s so they can detect fake, AI-generated faces, of course!
Isn’t the opt-out option to just not make the photos/posts globally public?
? They own the data. They don’t need it to be public to access it.
Yes but they only performed the training on the posts and images set to be globally publicly accessible by anyone. In a sense, they took the public permissions as an indicator that they could use that data for more than just providing the bare social media service.
