The Massachusetts Department of Public Health is facing a class-action lawsuit for covertly installing a Google tracking app on over 1 million Android phones without users' permission.
Strive co-founder and executive chairman Vivek Ramaswamy discusses how Google allegedly altering midterm search results is a ‘threat to democracy’ on ‘Fox Business Tonight.’
"Conspiring with a private company to hijack residents’ smartphones without the owners’ knowledge or consent is not a tool that the Massachusetts Department of Public Health may lawfully employ in its efforts to combat COVID-19," the lawsuit said. According to the claims in the lawsuit, the app causes an Android cellphone to constantly connect and exchange data with other nearby devices via Bluetooth and create a record of those connections. This exchange process, the lawsuit explained, can make the time-stamped, stored data in person’s Android phone available to DPH, Google and application developers.
