We should do everything in our power to avoid face tracking. Its truly disturbing that we are allowing private companies to have this power, going as far as to invite it by uploading a picture of ourselfs to them.

I mean we might find a way to create a decentralised open source face tracking which would solve the issues of business being evil... Except face tracking or not businesses will find a way to be evil due to common greediness.
