TAG: Correspondent Jeremy House reporting. The agency said that building the database and insufficiently informing people whose images appear in the database amounted to serious breaches of the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation.
———————————
VERBATIM: The fine centers on Clearview AI’s creation of what the agency called an “illegal database” of billion of photos of faces. The Netherlands’ Data Protection Agency also warned Dutch companies that using Clearview’s services is also banned. The data agency said that Clearview “has not objected to this decision and is therefore unable to appeal against the fine.”
