Twitter demands AI firm stops using user images for law app

A technology firm whose products are used by law enforcement organizations around the world has been told to stop using images from Twitter.

The BBC reports that Clearview’s database contains around 3 billion images ‘scraped’ from Facebook and Twitter that drives its face recognition app that enables organizations such as the FBI to identify people.

The app hit the headlines recently after it was suggested that if it were to be made available to consumers people could be instantly identified by anyone in the street. Currently, it is only available for law enforcement and is uses only publicly available data.

The report says that Twitter has sent a cease and desist letter to Clearview citing violation of its terms and conditions which state that "Information derived from Twitter content may not be used by, or knowingly displayed, distributed, or otherwise made available to any public-sector entity for surveillance purposes."

However, Clearview states on its website that its service “is an after-the-fact research tool. Clearview is not a surveillance system and is not built like one.”
