Facebook has decided to ensure that your photo is in the buff was not available to the General public without your knowledge. The idea is to lock the picture before it will appear online. Such technology is already used to prevent dissemination of child pornography.

If you interested in any photo hit the Internet, you need to fill out a form online partner Facebook and upload a picture.

The problem is that people picture still sees. However, it would be "very small group of five specially trained officers". At least, so says the head of security Facebook.

Further, the employees of the social network will create a unique digital fingerprint, which will be stored in the database. If someone tries to upload the same picture in the network code will be recognized and the photo block. But this system does not give absolute guarantees, because the picture can be modified to different from the original.
