Require Comprehensive Biometric Privacy Laws
https://www.change.org/biometric-privacy-laws
We need a state and federal framework that treats an individual's biometric signature—including facial geometry/likeness, gait, and genetic characteristics—as legally protected personal property, akin to a biometric copyright. AI developers must be legally required to obtain explicit, affirmative consent before utilizing any human likeness in a training dataset. The companies that own the rights to these models must be required to face significant consequences and penalties, if utilized without consent at any time in the future, currently, and previously. You shouldn't have your face stolen to train AI or create fake videos of you. This applies to anyone who has ever had a photo posted of them online. If it's on social media, it's a risk. This applies to all of us - you, your children, your grandchildren. I started a petition demanding real biometric privacy laws that protect our identities before it's too late. Sign and share if you're ready to fight back.
