Facebook to Pay $550 Million to Settle Facial Recognition Suit.
Feb 15 2022 05:32PM more by lamar
Tags: Current Events

I have been at a standoff with Facebook for a couple of months because they won't allow me access to my account until I allow them to take a face picture of me.

Facebook has settled a long-running legal dispute about the way it scans and tags people's photos.

It will pay $550m (£421m) to a group of users in Illinois, who argued that its facial recognition tool was in violation of the state's privacy laws.

The case has been ongoing since 2015, and the settlement was announced in its quarterly earnings.

It comes as facial recognition use by the police, and in public spaces, comes under intense scrutiny.

Hmmmm… curious to see how this plays out.

The software helped catch a lot of January 6 insurrectionists.
And it’s not like you will find me or mine on social media.

They should invent a balaclava recognition system
Then do the same for ski masks, do-rags, bandanas and kn-95's
I'd be embarrassed to support that thug Cunterberg and his cunty wife
Fuck FacePlant or Mierde or whatever new name he comes up with

"Why would any adult have a Facebook account?"

Never understood that myself. I can communicate with anyone I need to reach by phone, text or e-mail - IN PRIVATE. I don't need to broadcast my doings to the rest of the work on a regular basis, nor do I desire such attention.

Once I realized that FB/Zuckerberg is into controlling speech and the narrative,
I don't use my account very much.

Not a bad idea seeing they won't allow me access anyway.

he's a dangerous steward of billions of bucks...hopefully, he loses 90 percent of it

I'll let him invest the 180billion in VR type stuff first...maybe keeps him from putting a billion into BLUE lib coffers
