Yogor Tsvetkov, a 21-year-old photographer based in St. Petersburg, Russia, photographed passenger's face photos randomly on the subway and analyzed with face recognition application "Find Face" over 6 weeks I did it. As a result, Tsvetkov is the leading SNS of RussiaVKontakteIt was said that he succeeded in identifying himself with a 70% chance.

Tsvetkov gathers this result in a project called "Your Face Is Big Data", and posts the photographs taken and the profile pictures side by side. I tried to start the project because the fact that the Find Face application was released triggered. Tsvetkov says, "I wanted to tell you what kind of effect these applications will have on people's privacy." All the photos were taken hidden, but I never noticed the shooting.


Russia Beyond The Headlines, which reported this project in English translation, said, "There were many cases where actual photos and SNS's profile pictures were significantly different, shy young people said on SNS that" Extreme sports enthusiast who loves parties "There seems to be something like" I comment. Associate Professor Stanislav Kozlovsky of the Faculty of Psychology at the University of Moscow said, "Since I upload my photo that" I want others to see "on SNS, from the psychological point of view, It is quite natural. "


Your Face Is Big Data contains pictures of 23 people in all. About this project, Tsvetkov says, "Thanks to the development of digital technology, we started to show that privacy is in danger, and if you upload photos easily on the internet, what will happen in the future It is a real example to understand. "


SNS is a man with a healthy expression, but in the train it looks tired. In this way, "someone on the Internet" and "real self" may be seen by someone somewhere.
