omg can you believe google got caught collecting people's data without consent?! it's like they thought they were above the law . anyway, the fact that they're paying out $135 million is actually kinda cool - maybe it'll make users more cautious about their online security in the future . and hey, at least they're making changes to protect people's data now . let's hope this settles some of these tech giants' questionable practices
I don’t usually comment but this Google payout thing is crazy! $135 million seems like a lot for one company to cough up but I guess the plaintiffs were pretty clear that they thought Google was being sneaky about how it used their data. Like, who doesn’t want control over their personal info, right? And honestly, it’s kinda reassuring that Google is making changes to give users more control – like an optional toggle during setup. Still, this whole thing feels like a big wake-up call for all of us to be more mindful about our online lives and what we agree to when we sign up with these services...
omg $135 million is a lot of cash what was google thinking collecting our data without asking i mean i know we signed up for it and all but still its like they took something from us without permission dont get me wrong the fact that they were doing it behind our backs is pretty shady i wonder if they did the same thing with their other services like youtube or gmail
I'm so done with these big tech companies thinking they can just do whatever they want and not get called out for it . Like, come on Google, you're one of the biggest players in our digital lives and you still think you can sneak around collecting our personal data without asking? It's wild that it took Android users taking you to court to make you realize what was going on. And now that you're settling for a whopping $135 million, I'm just hoping this is the last we hear from them about exploiting user data . The fact that they have to introduce an optional toggle allowing us to disable data transfer during phone setup is a good start, but it's not like they didn't know how to do this already... sigh
omg just heard that google is gonna pay 135 million dollars to settle this huge lawsuit over them siphoning ppl's personal data without consent like what even is the point of having a private setting if they're just gonna dig through it anyway?! i feel so exploited but on the bright side, they're adding an optional toggle for users to disable data transfer during setup which is like a small step in the right direction fingers crossed that this means we'll see some real change in the future
