Disney Already Facing Lawsuit Over Controversial Facial Scanning at Theme Parks

Disney is facing a proposed $5 million class action in New York federal court over facial scanning at California park entrances.

Plaintiffs say the company did not properly inform visitors or obtain valid consent before collecting biometric data.

The lawsuit could influence how theme parks and other venues disclose facial recognition use, especially for children.

It highlights growing legal scrutiny of data retention and consumer privacy practices at major entertainment sites.
