If that URL doesn't work I went to Settings and there's a tab for "Facial Recognition" on the left rail. Between "Language and Regions" and "Notifications"
I don't know if this is supposed to be new, I found it and it was already set to "no". I think I turned it off on one of my privacy kicks a year or two ago, not sure exactly.
Just to confirm my experience: when I click on that link, I see "General Account Settings" (like name, username, contact... Everything that's available from the first left-hand menu choice.) And no where in that left-hand menu is there any choice about Face Recognition.
I do have a left-hand menu choice about "Timeline and Tagging" -- but there's still nothing there about face recognition.
I'd guess that it's a feature that's being gradually rolled out to all accounts.
I originally posted it because I was frustrated that I didn't see a link to the setting in the article, but I guess I understand why there was no link.
My left-hand menu looks exactly like yours -- but without the "Face Recognition" choice. (After "Language and Region" my next choice is "Notifications", with nothing in between.)
