This doesn't make any sense. You shouldn't need to send Facebook explicit photos of yourself. All they should need is personally identifiable information - your face, tattoos, moles, etc. Women should be able to use bikini shots and men should be able to use swim trunk shots. From that they can scan photos and find your likeness in nude shots.

Nothing good can come from this approach Facebook is taking.

I assume machine learning doesn't work well enough when the photo gets shared to friends of friends and facebook has to compare the bikini shots against 10,000 other users

It's supposed to use a hash of the image, so they technically need the exact same image. Doesn't seem like they're using machine learning.
