  This sounds like a promising technology. And the royalty-free APIs brings promise to consumer usage, but then I read:

  "The only significant requirements we put for the use of the APIs, is that the Polar Rose signature rose is used, and data that users generate is passed back to us on a non-exclusive basis."

  And while I'm excited to see how developers implement this, I can't help but ask, "what could a company do with an entire database of information that could connect names-to-faces? And at times, unbeknownst to the people being tagged." Of course, this is the least of my worries; there are plenty of more privacy-threatening technologies in existence.
