Vibrator Maker To Pay Millions Over Claims It Secretly Tracked Use
"The makers of the We-Vibe, a line of vibrators that can be paired with an app for remote-controlled use, have reached a $3.75 million class action settlement with users following allegations that the company was collecting data on when and how the sex toy was used...
The lawyers for the anonymous plaintiffs contended that the app, "incredibly," collected users' email addresses, allowing the company "to link the usage information to specific customer accounts."...
Standard Innovation also agreed to stop collecting users' email addresses and to update its privacy notice to be clearer about how data is collected."
