Dutch regulator fines Clearview €30 million… or more

This action highlights concerns over facial recognition technology's invasive nature and its misuse by private companies. Moreover, the regulator is contemplating personal accountability for Clearview's board members and is prepared to penalize Dutch organizations using its services. With other European nations also pursuing Clearview for GDPR violations, there’s a risk of escalating regulatory scrutiny that could lead to wider repercussions globally.
