Napoleon Patacsil filed a lawsuit against Google for violating users’ privacy by monitoring and storing their movements. The lawsuit is seeking class-action status on behalf of Android and iPhone users in the U.S. who had turned off Location History on their iPhones and Android devices yet were still tracked by Google. Last week, AP revealed that the search engine giant tracks movements of millions of iPhone and Android device users, even if they have disabled the “Location History” setting to prevent it. On Friday, Google even slightly changed its location policy, making it clear that even after turning off the Location History option, some Google services would continue collecting location information.
