Snapchat is reserving the right to put its users’ faces in ads, according to terms of service related to its “My Selfie” tool (formerly “AI Selfies”), which allows users and their friends to create AI-generated images trained on their selfies.

Users have the option to opt out of this by toggling off a “feature” in the app called “See My Selfie in Ads,” but according to 404 Media’s testing this feature is on by default.

I mean yeah it's a stupid feature that they probably shouldn't have, I just think the headline is super misleading since it implies they would use your face to advertise to to others which isn't true.

The fact they think I want to see my face in ads, is dumb beyond belief. And they spent money on that lol.
