Facedeals - This Is Pretty Neat

I find this creepy, but then again I am almost 40. I am guessing anyone under mid-twenties would eat this up. They are used to putting all their activities and their location out for public knowledge, I am not. I would rather check in to a location to get a deal instead of having it automated.

It's opt-in though so you only do it if you want the discounts, you're comfortable with the location, etc.

Isn't that the same question for Facebook? ;) Except a billion times bigger and more important than this little app?

It would seem to make sense that a police department had similar facial recognition technology linked to a database (mugshots?) so that when a person entered the precinct, district station, etc. the officer could be notified that they had outstanding warrants, had a history of violence or was a person of interest in a crime. Recall the violence in a Detroit police precinct.
