Facebook has invited social users to send their personal privacy pictures to British users. Through this, the initiative to stop the incident of posting someone else's nude picture in revenge.
If someone is afraid that any other person can share pictures of someone's personal moments, then it will work. Because the Facebook authorities will block it before it is published online.
Trying to prevent the spread of harassing images of children through the same technology.
Facebook authorities tested this process in Australia. Now they are going to start this experiment in the UK, USA and Canada.
A Facebook spokeswoman for Newsbit said, "Now the matter has been open for the people of Britain."
How will it work?
If a user is concerned about a personal picture of yourself, then Facebook has to associate with them for the trial. In Britain, such revenge can be contacted for help helpline.
Then the workers there will be contacted by Facebook and the user will be sent a link to upload the photo there.
But who can see these nude photos?
Antigen Davis, global head of security at Facebook, told Newsbit that only a small group of five trained reviewers could see this picture.
They will add digital fingerprint to the picture. Then the code will be saved in the database.
If any other person tries to upload the same picture, then it will recognize the code and stuck it before it is published in Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger.
Really what will this procedure be?
Antigen Davis of Facebook acknowledged that 100% can not be guaranteed when it comes to photo-matching technology. Because the picture can be distorted so that they can be different from the original picture. But he says he does not get good results.
The whole process will work properly if the image is worried about it. For example, if a person's former boyfriend / girlfriend is photographed on the phone and they do not have them, then this process will not give him any work.
Since the launch in 2015, Britain's revenge-cum-helpline has seen reports of such incidents growing year after year.
After the launch, this hotline received more than five hundred such reports in 2015. And in the year 2017 such reports came in more than 1000.
Photo share in social media: 'Parents are at risk of kids'

Identity theft
Social media is now posting birthdays, birthdays, birthdate, home address, birthplace, mother's name, school name, pet cat dog name, favorite football club name and picture horoscope.
Barclays warns that these kids will continue to be important when their children grow up.
yber criminals can use these information in online shopping, including bank loans and credit card fraud.
Barclays feared that by the end of the decade, 74 lakhs of online identity theft would happen, and 75 percent of them would be the reason that these information and pictures shared in the social media.
Jodi Gilbert, head of the Department of Digital Security, Berkeley Bank, says, "The fraudsters have never been able to steal the identity of others in the welfare of the social media."
Ms. Gilbert - 'Think twice before posting any information and pictures, and keep an eye on social media regularly, do not let your posts go wrong.'
