When photos look like me, suggest my name”. * Under “Things others share” you should see an option titled “Suggest photos of me to friends. * Go to your Facebook account’s privacy settings. If this is something you’re uncomfortable with, disable “Suggest photos of me to friends” now. Instead the onus is on you to untag yourself in any photo a friend has tagged you in. Remember, Facebook does not give you any right to pre-approve tags. The tagging is still done by your friends, not by Facebook, but rather creepily Facebook is now pushing your friends to go ahead and tag you. And if they find what they believe to be a match, they may well urge one of your Facebook friends to tag it with your name.
