Has anyone used this app called FindFace
FindFace is a facial recognition app that lets you photograph strangers in a crowd and find their real identity by connecting them to their social media accounts with 70% success rate.
Besides showing the social media account of the one you are searching for, FindFace also shows you social media accounts of people who look very much like the person in the photograph.
Sounds like a perfect tool for stalkers
There is a write up on the Guardian website

Security Firm Kaspersky also advises users to make their pictures private and delete old photos from the profile pictures album, if they do not want to be identified by strangers.
