Sounds pretty weird. So if I want to steal someones account I just either A) take a picture of them or B) download a picture of their face from facebook? What's the point exactly?

Seems as silly as uploading your nekid pics so facebook can prevent them from being distributed. If they really wanted to protect you they would just let you download an app that could analyze the files and upload just enough to detect similar video/pictures.

What has facebook done in the past to earn such trust? Seems just the opposite. Isn't it crazy to assume facebook will keep anything you upload secure?
