Facebook has announced a tool to counter account identity, identify face images to avoid strangers using users' images as avatars to fake and serve bad purposes.

But as revealed by the Washington Post site, this tool doesn't really work as a publication but can only compare your photos to a limited number of users. The feature will only localize and search for fake images of your friends and family members.

Avatar images or personal photos of a person will be compared by Faceook to millions of other users. But Facebook doesn't share how they do it and how they choose accounts to compare. Currently the world's largest social network has more than 2 billion users and it is clear that compared to tens of millions of people is still too small.

But what almost no user can expect is that if you can't find the fake account of the user, Facebook will go back to disabling the master account.

Not only does it compare the avatar image of a small number of users, Facebook says it only considers the new accounts created by comparing a person's personal photos with the remaining 2 billion people that would be impossible and consuming huge resources.
