Google Tracking Complaints Lawsuit
For several years, Lieff Cabraser litigated on behalf of internet users whose locations Google stored even though the relevant setting, which Google had explained would prevent the company from tracking their movements, had been disabled. The parties reached a $62 million settlement in 2023 that, in light of class size estimated at nearly 250 million individuals, provides funds for non-profit organizations aimed at promoting consumer internet privacy and thus furthering the interests of the class. The settlement also ensures changes to Google’s data collection and disclosure practices. The district court granted final approval to the settlement in May 2024 and appointed Lieff Cabraser as Co-Lead Class Counsel. The sole group of objectors filed an appeal, which is now pending at the Ninth Circuit.
