Ask HN: Looking for cofounder for face recognition startup

I'm not a potential co-founder, but was curious and visited your site. I had a strong, visceral, negative reaction. I've probably never gone from calm to angry so quickly on a non-ideological site before.

Why don't you explain what "begin" will do? What is the site for? Is it just a dark pattern to feed an algorithm and invade people's privacy?

Thanks for your feedback. You're told what 'begin' does when you click begin.

The website is simply a demonstration of how face login can be simple and unobtrusive - it's not actually part of the app and is going to be changed to reflect the rest of the application.

And just to clarfiy - it doesn't collect any data that you don't allow.

It's also really easy to delete any (and all) associated data after an account has been created.
