Have you ever wondered just how many pictures of yourself are floating around on the internet?
Well, a website called PimEyes claims to have the ability to find every single image of you that exists online. With the power of AI technology, this website has been dubbed the "most disturbing website on the Internet."
The website "Most disturbing website on Internet" claims to have the ability to find every single picture that exists of you on the internet.
With over 40 years of existence, the internet has accumulated a vast amount of information, including countless images.
The website in question, PimEyes, has been labeled as the "most disturbing website on the Internet" and is the platform responsible for providing these potentially unsettling results when searching for your own pictures.
The basic concept behind PimEyes is that you upload a photo of yourself, and the website utilizes AI technology to search the internet and identify any other pictures of you that are available online.
The basic service is free, allowing you to upload a snapshot of yourself and conduct a search. Within a minute or two, you will be presented with images of yourself from various sources on the internet, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and even that peculiar headshot on your work's "About Us" page.
However, it's important to note that the website's accuracy is not always perfect, and you may come across some "likenesses" that are included for good measure.
For a more in-depth search and access to links where the pictures have appeared, you have the option to upgrade to a paid search.
This can be particularly useful if you wish to have the pictures taken down from their respective sources.
Additionally, PimEyes offers the option to "opt-out" and remove yourself from appearing in other people's searches.
However, this process requires providing a scan of your ID or passport to verify your identity.
The website's intriguing nature naturally piques my curiosity, and it seems that many others on the internet share the same opinion.
Some individuals have found the website to be disturbing yet extremely valuable, as it helps them identify instances where their face has been used without consent, allowing them to take action and request the removal of such pictures.
On the other hand, some have labeled it as a "stalker's dream."
