Report: Google sued over tracking

Two Michigan women have filed a $50 million lawsuit against Google over how the company deals with location data on its Android phones, the Detroit News reported Thursday.

In the lawsuit, filed Wednesday in the U.S. District Court in Detroit, the women said that they did not approve of allowing location services on their phones. Their lawyer said that Google’s practices puts “users at serious risk of privacy invasions, including stalking.”
