She respects their privacy and censors all faces before posting.

With different emojis... at angle and scale to match the position and distance of the original faces.
Holy fuck, the amount of effort she put into that!
I wonder if the choice of emoji is random or related in some way to the person and what she thinks of them...
My guess is that it was not manual effort, but an app. Face tracking is really good these days, so the program just has to put random emojis over each found face.
Quite a few of them seem to be facing away though, so maybe there was a manual process after the initial run, or it tracks more than just faces, which is just a little worrying in a dystopian nightmare kind of way.
The effort is legit incredible. Bet she did it on her phone as well.
I have seen similar posts where photos posted from people in Japan have been careful to obscure the faces of the people in the background.
I wonder if it is a law or just common sense over there.
It's law. Obtaining permission to film even the simplest things in public in Japan is a laborious process, and if you're gonna show anyone's face, you have to document that they signed an agreement to that.
I think it’s law. I’m thinking of the Nebula/YouTube series Jet Lag that is filmed in multiple countries and in some countries they blur everyone’s faces and others they don’t.
I love Jet Lagged, but haven't thought much about this there, I'll have to rewatch the series.
If someone else is the subject of the shot/film without their consent? Definitely illegal.
If someone else is close enough to be easily recognizable in the shot? Depends on the setting/usage and I've seen different opinions from different lawyers but most saying it's safest to blur. If you show a guy with his mistress and the wife finds out, the guy can sue you for reputational damage and such. It's dumb. That's ignoring any actual legal issue with the filming itself. Many even suggest blurring license plates even though one can no longer just look up an address from them (though this was a thing before).
Now I'm curious of which app they used and how much of it was processed in the cloud, where the original image will live forever.
For some reason, in my brain this looks like a Black Mirror nightmare. That show has definitely traumatized me.
You know it was based on like a century of fiction before that.
the second episode ever set the bar way too high.
I love this.

Hey, I've seen that guy with the sunglasses before.
Huh. This is good. I like this.
I wish there would be an app that does that but instead of emojis puts the face of John Malkovich on everyone.
I remember my last selfie post before I nuked all my social media. 👵
See now this is an example of something a visual/image LLM could be used to do, to automate much of.
And also, you can run such a thing locally, it'll just be a bit slower.
You can use these things for good.
Whenever anyone does this, it is immediate unfollow.
You're angry that people respect privacy and don't post pictures of others without consent? Seems like an odd choice.
Someone in my feed posted a photo from "friday dinner with friends" - five bodies with raised glasses and black squares over their heads. What is the point?
They want to share things from their life without being inconsiderate of those around them.
What's the point of the picture then? "I went out with 5 black squares"?
what's the point of lemmy, "I argued with a dog."
Whenever someone thinks i care about their followlist, i ban
