Thought Experiment; Facebook Edition

Those of you who use Facebook probably know that when you upload photos of people, they can be "tagged". That process involves the site's software identifying faces and then asking you who they are.

It's probably a safe bet that FB runs some pretty sophisticated facial recognition software. And it's probably just as good a bet that they share that with DasGov.

So, what would happen if people began tagging photos and assigning other names to them? What would happen if you asked all of your friends to tag photos of you as "David B.Cooper" or "Evelyn Frechette"? Probably the software runs by majority rule and, once enough people have tagged you by an alias, FB might think that's who you are.
