The Dutch Data Protection Agency fined Clearview AI 30.5 million euros for building an 'illegal database' of billions of facial images, violating GDPR.
DPA chairman Aleid Wolfsen emphasized that facial recognition is an intrusive technology, stating that anyone's photo can end up in Clearview's extensive database.
Clearview's chief legal officer called the fine 'unlawful and devoid of due process,' arguing that the company is not subject to EU regulations.
Failure to comply with EU regulations could result in additional penalties of up to 5.1 million euros for Clearview if breaches aren't halted.
