People have a right to privacy — including their data.
That’s why I filed a lawsuit against Google for secretly tracking consumers’ locations to turn a profit.
Google deceptively led their customers to believe they have control over their own data. Meanwhile, Google was obtaining sensitive data, including tracking locations, while users thought they had turned off Google’s ability to collect this data. This violated the Consumer Protection Act and the right to privacy Washingtonians deserve.
I’m proud to announce that we held Google accountable. The tech giant is now forced to pay $40 million and change how they conduct business and track consumer data.
I will continue to hold powerful interests that don’t play by the rules accountable and take on billion-dollar corporations that violate the law.
As Governor, I will fight for the right to privacy. If you’re with me, please consider making a donation to support my Exploratory Campaign for Governor.
Thank you!
Bob
