"Facebook facial recognition could unlock clues in search for missing persons" http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-04-30/facebook-missing-persons-initiative-clues-facial-recognition/9710776

"A new app aims to make finding missing children in the most populated country in the world a little bit easier and more of a collective effort."

"Advertising agency JWT China and missing children site Baby Back Home have jointly developed an app in China that utilizes facial-recognition technology to help identify missing or kidnapped kids, Creativity Online reported. The organizations say that, with a population reaching approximately 1.4 billion, everyone can be a search volunteer. Users of the app can take a photo of a child they think is lost on their phone. The app then uses facial-recognition technology to identify matches with a missing persons database. If a match is found, the family is notified. Within one week of the app's launch, there were 20,000 downloads and two children were reunited with their families, according to JWT." https://mashable.com/2013/05/31/chinese-missing-kids-app/#2frLmuiTa8qu
