Don’t look now, but Facebook may get yet another way to track you: your camera.

According to a new “image fingerprinting” patent filed by the company in January (that’s Patent Publication US 20150124107 to you), the tech Facebook is developing could identify the exact camera used to shoot a photo. It would even recognize photos of yours that are uploaded to accounts, say, other than yours.
