Appeals Court Upholds $13M Google Street View Settlement Over Wi-Fi Data

A federal appeals court upheld Google’s settlement in a class action case over allegations that it collected Wi-Fi data illegally with its Street View program. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the argument that the $13 million settlement was unfair because it only distributed money to privacy groups and did not pay the class members.
