Excellent move and a good step towards using signing keys to authenticate genuine content, something I think will become inevitable across the board.

How would it work?

You probably claim copyright infringement if a shady cam face recognition service takes your image. And they'd have to remove it

Heh, yeah. But probably just a legal way to be able to stop agencies selling your data, since then they are profiting off of copyrighted "works"
