The New York Times reports paid website PimEyes can find obscure photos of a person from across the internet using an uploaded image of their face. Search results show a series of similar photos, with links to where they appear online. A test of the service by the Times found it mostly correctly identified photos of journalists even when they were wearing sunglasses, a mask or had their face turned from the camera. PimEyes results do not include social media sites.
