U.S. states sue Google over location-tracking
Several U.S. states sued Google on Monday over what they call deceptive practices in location-tracking.
Texas, Indiana, Washington State and the District of Columbia all accuse the tech giant of invading users' privacy.
The bipartisan suit accuses Google of falsely leading customers to believe that changing their account and device settings would allow them to protect their privacy.
But instead, the suit alleges, Google continues to systematically surveil its customers and profits from their data.
Google has been quick to respond.
Spokesperson Jose Castaneda said the case was based on "inaccurate claims and outdated assertions".
He added "we have always built privacy features into our products and provided robust controls for location data. We will vigorously defend ourselves and set the record straight."
A similar case was filed against Google by the state of Arizona in 2020.
It alleged the U.S. firm used “deceptive” and “unfair” practices to obtain the location data of users.
That lawsuit is pending.
