An
attempt to avoid the backlash to their facial recognition app? Will
other locations still match to faces uploaded by Illinois residents?
Clearview
AI to stop selling controversial facial recognition app to private
companies
Controversial
facial recognition provider Clearview AI says it will no longer sell
its app to private companies and non-law enforcement entities,
according to a legal filing first
reported on Thursday by BuzzFeed
News.
It will also be terminating all contracts, regardless of whether the
contracts are for law enforcement purposes or not, in the state of
Illinois.

You
NEED to Act Even If Your Company Is Compliant With EU GDPR
There
is a common perception amongst privacy and business leaders that they
do not need to take any action (for India’s PDPB) if they have
already taken actions for compliance with EU GDPR. While the amount
of work may not be as much, companies
still need to take specific actions for PDPB. This
article talks about what actions companies compliant with GDPR shall
need to take to become compliant with PDPB.

Complicated.
National
Security Warning Labels May Be Coming Soon to Apps
Jim
Banks, the Republican Party’s Indiana representative, is pushing
forward a piece of legislation that would see consumers being slapped
with warning labels before downloading apps that originate from
countries considered to be U.S. national security risks.
If
passed, the bill would mandate that app developers and app stores go
to new lengths in their warning labels to lay out which companies own
the app, as well as to which country’s laws the app is subject.

Google
Lens can now copy and paste handwritten notes to your computer
Google
has added a very useful feature to Google Lens, its multipurpose
object recognition tool. You can now copy
and paste handwritten notes from
your phone to your computer with Lens, though it only works if your
handwriting is neat enough.
In
order to use the new feature, you need to have the latest version of
Google Chrome as well as the standalone Google Lens app on
Android or
the Google app on
iOS (where
Lens can be accessed through a button next to the search bar).
You’ll also need to be logged in to the same Google account on both
devices.
That
done, simply point your camera at any handwritten text, highlight it
on-screen, and select copy. You can then go to any document in
Google Docs, hit Edit, and then Paste to paste the text. And voila —
or, viola, depending on your handwriting.
… In
addition to the new copy-and-paste feature, Google is also rolling
out a pronunciation tool.
Just highlight a word in Lens, and tap “Listen” to hear how it’s
pronounced. (This is available in Android now and coming to iOS
soon.) You can also now look up concepts with Lens, searching for
phrases like “gravitational waves” to get in-line Google search
results. That’s potentially very handy if you’re doing
schoolwork or helping your children with theirs.
