    Yahoo’s Issei Yoshida said “We think Face Stealer could be used easily to talk with your face hidden. For example, a man could join in video chat using a pretty woman’s face.” Also you could possibly make YouTube video presentations as someone else...
    Yeah, I can think of plenty of non-nefarious reasons to want to do that. Wait. No I can't.

    "For example, a man could join in video chat using a pretty woman’s face"

    Most disturbing quote ever. How is that in any way a good thing??!
    "I want to be young and wild, then I want to be middle aged and rich, then I want to be old and annoy people by pretending that I'm deaf..."

    I download it to have a play! Used a picture of Kelly brook and the results were quite frankly, frightening! The technology is a LONG way off being useable..

    Strangely I used a pic of chewbaka and I didn't look any different :/
