Abstract
In May 2020, Clearview AI abruptly ended all service contracts with all non-law enforcement entities based in Illinois. The reason? It hoped to avoid an injunction and potentially large damages under one of the most important privacy laws in America: the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA).
