Another Facebook Privacy Item: Facial Recognition

June 8th, 2011 · No Comments

I know, you’re thinking “Not again!”  But, just in case you haven’t heard, Facebook recently switched it’s facial recognition for tagging to default.  So if you don’t necessarily want to be tagged in every picture, you can disable the feature via the following steps:

  1. Go to your privacy settings.
  2. Click “Customize settings.”
  3. Scroll down to “Things others share.”
  4. Find “Suggest photos of me to friends.”
  5. Edit accordingly.

In the meantime, you might also check out Facebook’s Privacy Features from Mashable as a refresher.
