Disable Facebook face recognition
Today's Recommendation: Disable Facebook facial recognition. This course has been activated without notifying anyone, as always. This morning I read in the magazine PC Actual.
Facebook has enabled the facial recognition on photos, so you will automatically be added the names of friends who are in the images posted by users.
This option has been enabled by default in unannounced Facebook social network can be easily disabled in the section on Account> Privacy Settings> Customize your settings. In the privacy settings for things that others share has Added a new option called "Suggest to the labels of the pictures of my friends."
By clicking on the Edit Settings button will get a dialog box where you can disable this feature.
When enabled this option without warning users may be labeled without their consent to publish snapshots friends. However, once this has happened, you can always remove the tag question, as has been happening so far with the manual tagging of photos.
I hope you find it useful.

We received so much publicity on a daily basis, so many brands that try to sell their products, it is time that we have installed a spam filter ourselves to ignore everything that we consider ordinary and generally unoriginal, pointless or completely unnecessary for our lives. And here comes the time where creativity needs to be integrated truth in advertising, where imagination has to go beyond itself and surprise, and for that, is the guerrilla marketing.
Forget about prejudice, stereotypes, constraints and stomp. You have to propose things that offended, that somehow, break than expected and attention, that is what has created the marketing.
The term was coined Guerrilla Marketing in 1984 by Jay Conrad Levinson in a book with the same name. In this, Levinson gives tips and aggressive weapons to be used by small businesses with limited financial resources.
The characteristics of environmental marketing, described by the same Levinson are:
- It is designed for small businesses on a budget.
- Should be focused on human psychology, rather than experience. Experience is an acquired skill through repetition and perseverance to accomplish a task. Guerrilla marketing is about creating something new.
- Instead of money, the main investment is the imagination, time and effort itself. It's cheap, but requires who does it.
- You must create new relationships, but focus on those already created. 80% of profit comes from 20% of customers. Generally these are the ones that already have brand loyalty and repeat purchases, they are also one of the best marketing tools.
- The use of traditional marketing and technology to get the message across. Give use all available resources, guerrilla marketing is not acting alone. Need a good platform to stand on.
