In a significant development in the realm of digital privacy, Edelson has initiated a wave of class actions against major tech companies, including Twilio, Verve Group, and Amplitude. The complaints allege that these companies have deployed software development kits (SDKs) that illegally track user locations and effectively “eavesdrop” on their communications.
The core argument in all three complaints is that the use of these SDKs violates a California privacy law prohibiting the use of recording devices to intercept communications without the consent of the parties involved.
