Facebook has launched a pioneering program to protect potential victims from blackmail by publishing their photos, and to prevent "pornographic revenge."

The potential victims should upload the targeted photos using Facebook Messenger, the website’s instant messaging app, and then specialists will examine the images to determine whether they meet the criteria of "pornographic revenge" and then "encrypt" them, according to the German news agency (dpa).

The program allows Facebook’s Australian users who fear the publication of their images on the social network, to contact the Commissioner. If the request is approved, victims can send the targeted images to themselves via Messenger.  Facebook said that this new application is not available in the meantime, but would be used by individuals whose cases are accepted by the commissioner.  Facebook Chief Security Officer Alex Stamos wrote on Twitter: “We know that it’s a risk we are trying to balance against the serious, real-world harm that occurs every day when people (mostly women) can’t stop their intimate images from being posted.”  A specially trained Facebook representative will review the image before encrypting them. Once someone attempts to publish or share the image on any Facebook platform, including Instagram, this attempt will be automatically stopped, and Facebook can suspend the account trying to publish the photos.

Don't use Facebook unless you don't mind voluntarily giving out your personal information to the government.
Kind of like how the new bio-sensors that is slowly being rolled out via mobile tech devices.
ie. finger print scanner, eye retina scanner, constant operation of audio/visual recording through hacks / 3rd party programs (how do you think Siri or other similar listening functions work? They have to be "on" 24/7.)
