The 18-year-old New Yorker claims he “was forced to respond to multiple false allegations' in several states, which caused severe stress and damaged his reputation.
A 18-year-old New York student claims in a lawsuit against Apple that he “was forced to respond to multiple false allegations” of theft, which caused him stress and damaged his reputation.
The lawsuit, citing the detective, says that Apple uses facial recognition technology to identify shoplifters. Apple declined to comment on the lawsuit. The company confirmed that it does not use facial recognition technology in its stores. Bah had been charged in multiple jurisdictions including Delaware, Massachusetts, New Jersey and New York, according to the lawsuit. Charges in three cases against him have been dropped, but the New Jersey case is still pending. A spokeswoman for the New York Police Department said that the case there had been sealed and that she could not provide information about it.
