Texas, Indiana, Washington state and the District of Columbia sued Alphabet’s
Google on Monday over what they called deceptive location tracking practices that invade users’ privacy.
“Google falsely led consumers to believe that changing their account and device settings would allow customers to protect their privacy and control what personal data the company could access,” the office of the Washington DC attorney general, Karl Racine, said in a statement.
