• How To Block Facebook's Face Recognition And Tighten Other Privacy Settings | Fast Company

  tags: facebook privacy facerecognition

  • Under the "Account" drop-down menu at the top-right of Facebook's title bar, click "Privacy settings." On the bottom half of the next window, under "Sharing on Facebook" click "Custom." Then at the bottom, click on the little blue pencil and its "customize settings label." In the next window scroll down to the "Things others share" section and the third list item, "Suggest photos of me to friends." Click on the "Edit Settings" button, and scan to the middle right of the new pop-up window, which has little pics of your friends to remind you how friendly Facebook is. See the facility is enabled? Click on this button, select "Disabled." And then click on "OK" to make the pop-up go away.

    Easy, wasn't it? Just nine click/scroll maneuvers required to burrow through multiple layers of windows.
