Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton settled with Pieces Technologies for making deceptive claims about the accuracy of its healthcare AI products used in Texas hospitals. The company advertised an error rate of '<1 per 100,000' which was found inaccurate. The settlement requires Pieces to accurately disclose product accuracy and ensure hospital staff understand the limitations.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton secured a $1.4 billion settlement with Meta over the company’s decade-long unauthorized capture of Texans’ facial geometry via its Tag Suggestions feature, which used facial recognition software without providing notice or obtaining informed consent. The practices violated Texas’s Capture or Use of Biometric Identifier Act (CUBI) and Deceptive Trade Practices Act, as Meta automatically enabled the feature for all Texans without explaining its functionality or seeking permission. This is the largest privacy settlement ever obtained by a single state attorney general, with Meta required to pay the penalty over five years and cease the unlawful biometric data practices.
