Facial Recognition Start-Up That Sells Data to Police Got Its Client List Stolen

An intruder stole the client list of a company called Clearview AI. The company claims it scrapes the Internet for public images to use for facial recognition, to then sell that data to law enforcement. Nobody knows who actually gets access to their client list, and the company has yet to make a statement about the breach. It said the servers and infrastructure remain untouched, but that doesnt seem to have been the goal of the presumptive attacker. For now, there is no indication that the list was released to the public and it’s not clear how extensive the intrusion really was.”]
