on how it can be used ..... I know there is always people finding way not to use what design intent.

See the link below.
Many providers have kids, nearly all have some family of some sort and even the common person has a reason for concern.
Someone can take, or have a picture of you and use face recognition software to see all your pictures on line and what sites you are associated with. The casinos have been using it for years to identify card counters but now the software has evolved and is out there for anyone to get.
So if a provider had someone that didn't like them, an inquitistive relative, coemployee or child, they could find out nearly everything about them..what sites their image is associated with, their address, their work address, SSN and it goes on and on.
To make things even worse, if you EVER had an image on the internet that was associated with a site, it is still there by using tools like wayback. So even if you took pictures with your face on them off tonight, all the info is there. As everyone (hopefully) knows by know, everything you do on the interent is accesible for life by any half wit with the right tools.
Again, don't kill the messenger but I know some providers that have kids and I know for them, more than anything else, they don't want their family and especially their kids knowing that they are in this biz.
Sorry to be the bringer of bad news, but I know some providers would be very upset if their kids found out. It's bad for us hobbyist also. I know I almost need to see someone's face on line before I set an appointment.
Hopefully, for now the software doesn't work all that well, but you know eventually, it will.
