Google pays nearly $392 million to settle sweeping location-tracking caseGoogle has agreed to pay nearly $392 million in a settlement with 40 states over allegations that the company tracked people through their devices after location tracking had been turned off, a coalition of state prosecutors announced on Monday."For years Google has prioritized profit over their users' privacy," said Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum, who led the probe along with Nebraska.State investigators called it "the most sensitive and valuable personal information Google collects," noting that it helps target people with ads based on their vicinity.As part of the deal, Google committed to a number of changes that will make the company's location-tracking practices more clear, including showing users more information when they turn location tracking on or off and providing a detailed rundown of the location data Google routinely collects on a webpage consumers can access."Until we have comprehensive privacy laws, companies will continue to compile large amounts of our personal data for marketing purposes with few controls," Oregon AG Rosenblum noted in a statement."
