But Clearview’s chief executive, Hoan Ton-That, ran a version of my Facebook experiment on the Clearview app and said the technology did not interfere with his system. In fact, he said, his company could use images cloaked by Fawkes to improve its ability to make sense of altered images.
“There are billions of unmodified photos on the internet, all on different domain names,” Mr. Ton-That said. “In practice, it’s almost certainly too late to perfect a technology like Fawkes and deploy it at scale.”
Other experts were also skeptical that Fawkes would work. Joseph Atick, a facial recognition pioneer who has come to regret the surveillance society he helped to create, said the volume of images of ourselves that we had already made available would be too hard to overcome.
Personalmente credo che vendere questo programma come protezione per la privacy sia molto discutibili. In pratica, chi lo usa, produce gratuitamente dati per calibrare una adversarial neural network in grado di migliorare gli algoritmi di facial recognition. Quanto al fatto che sia troppo tardi, non sono d'accordo: possiamo insegnare ai ragazzi a NON diffondere proprie immagini su internet. La nostra generazione è stata ingenua ed ignorante, ma la prossima non è ancora del tutto perduta. Giacomo
