Abstract generation in progress

Five Illinois residents have filed a class action lawsuit against Microsoft Corp., alleging that its Microsoft Teams software illegally collects and analyzes users’ voice data without proper notice. The lawsuit claims that the software’s real-time transcription feature uses “diarization” to create “voiceprints” from users’ voices, violating the Illinois Biometric Privacy Act (BIPA). The plaintiffs are seeking actual damages or $1,000 per negligent violation, potentially rising to $5,000 for intentional or reckless violations.
