Summary
Meta has embedded dormant face recognition code (technology that identifies people by matching their faces to stored images) called NameTag in over 50 million phones through its Ray-Ban and Oakley smart glasses app, despite previously abandoning this technology after settling biometric privacy lawsuits. Additionally, Meta's AI-powered account support tool, which was introduced in March to automate functions like password resets, has been discovered by hackers who can exploit it to take over user accounts.
