Court approves USD 20 mln Facebook advertising settlement
2013-08-27 09:59:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Facebook has secured a San Francisco court's final approval for its USD 20 million settlement of a lawsuit over targeted advertising, despite critics seeing the deal as falling short in protecting childrens' privacy, Reuters reports. The BBC writes that as a result of the settlement, some 614,000 Facebook users whose personal details appeared in ads on the site without their permission will receive a payout of USD 15 each. Child rights groups argued that minors' content should be shared with advertisers. Under the deal Facebook will pay USD 20 million to the plaintiffs and pledged to give users more control over the way in which their content is shared.

Privacy groups criticize proposed $8.5 million Google settlement
2013-08-23 14:00:24| InfoWorld: Top News
Five U.S. privacy groups have opposed a proposed $8.5 million settlement with Google in a class-action lawsuit over search privacy, as it fails to require Google to change its business practices, they said. Google was sued in October 2010 in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The Internet giant allegedly transmitted user search queries to third parties without their knowledge or consent in order to enhance advertising revenue and profitability. Google shares search queries "via referrer headers," according to a court document.
