A judge recently decided that Facebook must face a class action alleging that the Messenger app records call and text logs of Android users. Facebook attempted to dismiss the Messenger class action, arguing that plaintiffs in the case failed to show that their call and text data was gathered and sold without consent. U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg recently rejected this argument and said that Facebook cannot escape claims that they violated Android users’ rights with their alleged data scraping scheme. Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this with Scott Hardy from Top Class Actions.
