Google and YouTube Settle $30 Million Lawsuit Over Children’s Data

Google has agreed to settle a $30 million lawsuit alleging unlawful data collection of children under 13 years old. The settlement, overseen in California courts, impacts U.S. residents affected by the alleged privacy violations between 2013 and 2020. Guardians of those children could receive up to $1,500 each. The case highlights ongoing concerns about data collection practices on digital platforms, but has no direct connection to cryptocurrency markets.
