      When you put your photos (or anything else) on onedrive they go to Microsoft’s servers. Microsoft now has your photos. That is how this works. They aren’t pushing so hard to coerce Windows users into using it for benevolent reasons.

        So you want it to be done locally against photos that are stored in the cloud?

        This only happens for photos that you upload to onedrive. Why or how would it happen “locally”?

        You said “a bunch of asshole corporations databases” - who are the “bunch of corporations”? Microsoft is only 1 corporation.

          I don’t want my photos in the cloud period.

          Have the software run on the PC or a server that you own.

          You said “a bunch of asshole corporations databases” - who are the “bunch of corporations”? Microsoft is only 1 corporation.

          Any corporation that lets you upload photos. Onedrive, google, facebook, whoever. They’re all abusing your data.

            I song want my photos in the cloud period

            So why are you uploading your photos to Onedrive? If you’re not then why are you complaining about this feature that only exists does people who do?

            You seem to be arguing about something completely off topic. Doing the face recognition on your local machine only to have the photos and tagged faces uploaded to onedrive makes no sense because the point of it is to automatically identify all photos of the tagged people so you can then find them all with a simple search for their name, and make custom auto-updating albums of specific people.

            What exactly is your point?

              To wake others up to the fact that it’s not a good service to use and to the fact that maybe the people in the pictures they are uploading also don’t want to have their image handed over to all these corporations. Have you ever asked the people in your pictures about this? I don’t even let anyone take my picture anymore because everyone and their grandma has been ignoring my wishes about that since fucking myspace.
