Facebook is moving forward with its acquisition of Face.com, reportedly paying between $55 million and $60 million in a mix of cash and stock for the facial recognition technology startup.

"There are a bunch of concerns here," said independent researcher Ashkan Soltani. Among them is the specter of hijacked photos, as both Face.com and Facebook have a massive database of face prints.
