OkCupid gave 3 million dating-app photos to facial recognition firm, FTC says
""While we do not admit any wrongdoing, we have settled this matter with the FTC with no monetary penalty to resolve an issue from 2014 and move forward," an OkCupid spokesperson said."
"The FTC criticized Match and OkCupid for sharing OkCupid data with Clarifai, an AI company that offers facial recognition technology."
OkCupid and Match Group reached a settlement with the Trump administration regarding the sharing of user data, including photos and location information, with a facial recognition company. The settlement, which does not involve any financial penalties, prohibits the companies from misrepresenting their data usage practices. OkCupid stated that the incident does not reflect its current operations and emphasized improvements in privacy practices since 2014. The settlement requires judicial approval and follows a recent court ruling affecting the FTC's enforcement powers.
