βFAWKESβ TOOL PROTECTS YOU FROM FACIAL RECOGNITION ONLINE
The use of facial recognition systems by large companies has serious ramifications for personal privacy. Fawkes, a free tool from UChicago computer scientists, is one way to fight back.
Fawkesβcloaksβ photos to trick the deep learning computer models that power facial recognition, without noticeable changes visible to the human eye. With enough cloaked photos in circulation, a computer observer will be unable to identify a person from even an unaltered image, protecting individual privacy from unauthorized and malicious intrusions.
To use Fawkes, users simply apply the cloaking software to photos before posting them to a public site. Currently, the tool is free and available on the project website for users familiar with using the command line interface on their computer.
Make your internet security stronger!
