"How much you want to bet the plan to "shutdown" Facial Recognition won't involve disclosing who they tagged(including non-facebook users), what third parties accessed or used the information, or let those people (users or not) review that data, or delete it after the inevitable storm of lawsuits that are coming."

Yeah, I thought that too when I read:

"no longer supply names for people recognized in photos."

I'd be prepared to bet it's all still going on in the background, just not publicly showing the results.
