Facial recognition company Clearview AI reportedly attempted to purchase a database containing 390 million mugshots, Social Security numbers, and arrest records for $1 million. However, the company appears to have been scammed in the process and is now seeking to recover its funds. This incident follows Clearview's previous legal troubles, including a settlement exceeding $50 million related to the unauthorized scraping of images from the internet to develop its facial recognition technology. In a separate development, Infosys has agreed to pay $17.5 million to settle a class action lawsuit stemming from a data breach that occurred in 2023, addressing concerns over the security of customer data.
