Amazon seeks to dismiss lawsuit over biometric payment system

Amazon and Starbucks are asking a federal court judge to dismiss a lawsuit claiming the "Just Walk Out" cashless checkout violated New York City law, MediaPost reports. Plaintiffs claim the technology's biometric data collection violates a city ordinance requiring "clear and conspicuous" notice, while Amazon argues they consented to the tech's use. Meanwhile, a federal judge ruled a lawsuit claiming Meta's Pixel wrongly collected California Department of Motor Vehicles' data from its website will move forward, MediaPost reports.
