 Google ordered to pay $425 million in privacy lawsuit, jury rules

A federal jury on Wednesday ordered Google to pay $425 million for violating users’ privacy by collecting data from millions of accounts that had opted out of a tracking feature. The verdict comes from a class-action lawsuit filed in San Francisco, in which plaintiffs alleged that Google “unlawfully accessed their devices and data, including app activity on mobile devices,” despite the company’s assurances under its Web & App Activity settings.

The lawsuit, which began in July 2020, involved roughly 98 million Google users and 174 million devices. The plaintiffs had sought $31 billion in damages. Google said it plans to appeal the ruling. Spokesperson Jose Castaneda said the decision “misunderstands how our products work” and emphasized that the company’s privacy tools allow users to control their data, insisting that Google honors users’ choices when personalization is turned off.
