An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Fawkes is a facial image cloaking software created by the SAND (Security, Algorithms, Networking and Data) Laboratory of the University of Chicago. It is a free tool that is available as a standalone executable. The software creates small alterations in images using artificial intelligence to protect the images from being recognized and matched by facial recognition software. The goal of the Fawkes program is to enable individuals to protect their own privacy from large data collection. As of May 2022 Fawkes v1.0 has surpassed 840,000 downloads. Eventually the SAND Laboratory hopes to implement the software on a larger scale to combat unwarranted facial recognition software.
