The Dutch groups have asked Google to pay 750 euros over alleged privacy violations (Representational)
Amsterdam, Greece:
The Dutch Consumers’ Association Consumentenbond together with the Privacy Protection Foundation issued legal proceedings against Google on Tuesday for alleged large-scale privacy violations, they said in a statement.
Both groups demanded that Google, part of Alphabet Inc., stop “its constant surveillance and sharing of personal data through online advertising auctions” and that it pay 750 euros ($804) in damages “for every consumer who has used Google”.
The statement said 82,000 people had so far joined the claim for damages since the groups announced the action in May 2023.
