How Do I Permanently Turn Off Face Recognition?
Today I decided to move from an old version of Lightroom to the latest Classic and CC and begin syncing all of my platforms but then all of sudden the "People" option showed up and before I was given any sort of an option Lightroom Classic began going through my photos and assigning identities to all of the faces, of my family, friends, clients...people whom I cherish and respect their privacy! I found an option to pause this activity but the progress bar continued regardless! I contacted online support whom showed me how to uncheck this option in preferences but that still did not stop the progress bar. How do I stop this private information being taken from me, my family, friends and clients, whom were all not given any sort of option to remain anonymous? And how do I get back and erase the identity information that has been stolen from me?
While I've been a long time Adobe user and fan, this is definitely a line I won't cross...and not only will I discontinue my support of Adobe I'll outwardly protest this on social media because if a company nor government can't respect your privacy then they're not acting in your best interest!
