Now that this is possible, what stops bad people/companies/governments from (ab)using this?

There's really nothing else you can do apart from wearing a mask and sunglasses, which will also be bypassed soon enough. (Not to mention that no one wants to do that.)

Unlike weapons, a lot of these ai tools have some force of good behind them as well - so good governments won't pass laws against this either.

Where "this" = face recognition technology :)

It's here, and I can't think of anything you can do about it (especially in public).

Plenty of fashionable options for messing with facial recognition. https://cvdazzle.com/
