Face-search prevention
How to stop facial recognition from using your public photo as clean source material
You cannot stop every form of copying on the public web, but you can reduce how easy it is for facial-recognition and face-search systems to use your published image as a reliable biometric reference.
Public profile images are easy to copy, archive, and reuse outside the site where you posted them.
Face-search systems care about stable biometric features, not whether the image looks normal to people.
Adversarial photo protection is one of the few practical upstream defenses before distribution.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can any public profile picture be scraped?
In practice, anything rendered publicly on the web can often be copied or indexed somehow. The better defense is reducing the biometric value of the image before publication.
Does this stop every facial-recognition model?
No honest product can guarantee that. The goal is to make the image harder to match across common model behavior, not to promise universal immunity.
Why not just avoid using a profile photo?
Many people need a public-facing photo for work, credibility, or conversion. Hardening the image is often more realistic than disappearing.
