Texas sues Google over alleged nonconsensual harvesting of biometric data
In February, Paxton sued Facebook parent Meta, the first lawsuit based on CUBI despite the fact that the biometric law dates back to 2009. That case remains unresolved, though it did prompt Meta's Instagram to ask app users in Texas to opt-in to its face image filters. Illinois and Washington are presently the only other states with biometric privacy laws., disputed Paxton's assertions in an emailed statement.
"AG Paxton is once again mischaracterizing our products in another breathless lawsuit," a company spokesperson said."For example, Google Photos helps you organize pictures of people, by grouping similar faces, so you can easily find old photos." "Of course, this is only visible to you, you can easily turn off this feature if you choose and we do not use photos or videos in Google Photos for advertising purposes. The same is true for Voice Match and Face Match on Nest Hub Max, which are off-by-default features that give users the option to let Google Assistant recognize their voice or face to show their information. We will set the record straight in court.
