Face Recognition: For or against?

admin — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 16:22:19 +0000

Imagine, you walk in the street, you take a picture of someone like that because it seems interesting and nice, and you then have access to various information concerning: name, email, social networks frequented … On the future work that the Swedish company that TAT has developed a facial recognition application called “Recognizr. Fortunately, it is voluntary. We must adhere to the application by sending his photo and information that you want to attach (name, address, email, Facebook profiles, Twitter …). Then, any other person with this application may, with the camera built into the phone, you recognize and have access to your information and thus knows a lot about you. How does it work you ask? You know perhaps the principle of “augmented reality”, which superimposes virtual and real images to change our visual perception of things. And indeed, the concept of “identity plus”: superimposition of a physical identity and a digital identity to make the connection between the two. To be a little more clear from a picture (physical identity), “Recognize” created a 3D model and fetch the information he found in a database on the Internet (digital ID).

Sure, the team of developers must be very brooms, but have they really thought about the future of this technology and abuses that may arise? For possible applications seem endless whether good or bad. The head of linnet who always forget the names of his buddies can find them via their phone contacts. But for those, especially our teens, not too the notion of protecting privacy on the Internet, they need more than ever to pay attention to the mentally deranged. And Big Brother does he not see a new way to monitor you? And what prevents my neighbor, who can not see me or my ex, with whom I am sorry to add my photo and my profile (address, phone and more …). Time will tell all … In any case, the application is still at the prototype stage and is not available yet.

The computer is a wonderful tool and the Internet, in particular, may be a good way to learn and understand, if used wisely. Indeed, if the relevant information and materials are numerous on the Web, other factors must not fall into the hands of children.

There are solutions, however, and use the parental controls included with Windows is one. Follow the guide!

Step 1: Prerequisites and account creation

To use and configure the parental control of Windows, you must above all have a Home or Ultimate edition of Windows Vista. It should also be recognized as a computer administrator to apply a control to a standard account. If your PC has only one account, you’ll have to create one.

1. Go to the Control Panel in Windows via the Start menu.

2. Click on “Add or remove user accounts” under the User Accounts tab, then “Create a new account.

3. Then enter the name of the new users and keep the box “Standard User” selected.

4. Confirm the operation by clicking on “Create account”.

Step 2: Enable Parental Controls

Thereafter, you must define the control levels for the following: Web, video games and access time to the computer. These settings are accessible both via the lower left corner and right side, which tells you the status of settings. Let’s see what it is.

Step 3: Filter the Internet

Navigating the Web is probably the key element to control in protecting your children. Then click on “Filter Windows Vista restricting access to the Web” and click “Block some websites or content” to activate this control. It remains then to determine what type of lock you want to make:

• without limitation, your child can view any web page;

• blocking average prevent him from accessing a site to adult content, pornography, referring to drugs, weapons, or using hate speech. Windows handles these criteria and the restriction may be more severe than expected;

• Custom Profile allows you to choose what kind of content is blocked from a selection;

• Finally, the high restriction blocks all sites except those approved as providing content for children.

A final option allows access to sites clearly authorized by you in what Windows calls the green list while its counterpart, the Red List, lists all the websites explicitly blocked. You can edit this list and modify it as often as necessary.

Note that you can also block or otherwise allow download sites allowed.

Step 4: Establish a schedule of access to the PC

Windows provides a way to limit the use of PCs for every account controlled by the administrator. At Home Parental Controls, click on the link “Term Limits” to see a timetable: the white boxes represent the times during which your child can access the computer, the blue boxes are those where the access it be prohibited.

• using the classification of games offered by Microsoft. Based on the PEGI (for Pan European Game Information), it can prevent or allow the execution of a game based on the age of the child. Any game that does not contain information to classify it may also be blocked.

• blocking or allowing a game directly via the link “Block or allow specific games. Note that only games using the PEGI system appear in this list.

Step 6: Allow only certain programs
