Face-Search-Online

What it does

Upload a portrait and it looks for images of the same person elsewhere online, intended for checking whether your own photograph is being used without permission. Running a search on someone else's face is identification and tracking of that person, and using it for stalking or harassment is a criminal matter - restrict it to your own face. Note also that uploading an identifiable photograph carries its own risk, since how the operator handles it is not visible to you.
