Yes, you're thinking of recordings. This suit is brought under the Texas Capture or Use of Biometric Identifier Act (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 503.001 et seq.) [0]. At issue is the alleged unauthorized collection of face and fingerprint biometric data.

Thing is, outside purely legal statuses, I don't see why collection of "faces" done by a company on my behalf, is less dangerous than the police tapping in my account to retrieve pictures of alleged criminals.

In other words, I highly doubt that anyone wanting to enter my home would object to Google scanning their face, but I cannot say the same about the police collecting information on them.
