Posted April 27, 2016 The (not so much anymore) famous rapper B.o.B, who also went toe-to-toe with Neil DeGrasse Tyson in early 2016 tweeted out how Snapchat is just developing Facial Recognition as a database perhaps for the government. He's not very credible after going on a rant about how the earth is flat, but it definitely makes you think.

Posted April 27, 2016 Wait B.o.B said the Earth is flat? Link pls. I never know whether to laugh or cry whenever an artist I like reveals themselves to be a dolt.

Posted April 27, 2016 Ex Machina incoming. With their database they sure could do such thing. Wooow and all dem selfies. I used to like B.o.B as a person but he really showed a strange behavior in the past. Still liking the old songs though. Quote Fanboys, on both sides, are quite embarrassing. How can one be a "fan" of a company? A companies only goal is to make a profit off you. Instead of being a smart consumer and base your purchase decision on the best price / performance you choose to dick yourself over by only considering brand X. Idiotic loss to be honest. ~Quibiss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not just rappers, it's can be anyone of any profession. Ben Carson is a world renowed neurosurgeon, but he thinks archaeologists are lying to us and the pyramids were actually used as storage for grain instead of burying Pharaohs.

Posted April 27, 2016 While I doubt that is the intention, it could potentially be used similar to how the Russian app that searches the Russian facebook to match a picture to a profile. Which people are of course using to find and harass people, mostly the Russian 2chan folks finding and outing pornstars. Although, I wouldn't honestly be surprised if the government was helping snapchat succeed. The FBI was a major investor in Facebook when it looked like it would become popular. So while I don't think the gov't would create snapchat, I do think they would likely help and support facebook/snapchat/twitter like sites and services simply due to the sheer ease of data gathering. And if they are a financial backer, they can steer the company to be more gov't friendly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
