GM to pay $220 million to settle allegations it violated consumers’ privacy — Hillsboro Community news

Oct 29 (Reuters) – General Motors will pay $220 million to ​settle allegations ‌that it illegally sold consumers’ private driver behavior data ‌and ​location ⁠information to third ⁠parties, Washington state’s attorney general said on Thursday. Washington Attorney ​General Nick Brown said ⁠the state ⁠co-led a ​coalition of 36 ​attorneys general in the ‌case against GM. He said recipients of the ⁠consumer data included brokers who sold the ⁠data ‌to insurers, ⁠which then used ​the ‌data in ​part to set ⁠insurance rates.
