Class members are estimated to receive between $200 and $400 as part of a settlement over Google's face grouping tool.
Illinois residents who have appeared in a photograph on the Google Photos app within the last seven years may be eligible for a cut of a $100 million class-action privacy settlement reached by Google this month.
Google did not admit wrongdoing as part of the settlement, which resolves a group of lawsuits filed by five named plaintiffs. The first lawsuit was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois in March 2016. Two plaintiffs filed suit in state court in 2019 after a judge found they lacked standing to pursue their claims in federal court, and additional plaintiffs later filed their own lawsuits.
Castañeda said Google Photos users in Illinois would be prompted to provide opt-in consent to face grouping in the coming weeks. Those changes will also be gradually rolled out across the U.S., he said. Users can choose to turn face grouping off, in which case face groups will be deleted from their accounts.
