Zillow Users Can't Sue Over Microsoft Browser Tracking Tech
A Washington federal judge has dismissed a proposed class action lawsuit against Zillow, ruling that users cannot sue over the company's use of Microsoft's browser tracking software.
The plaintiffs alleged that Zillow used Microsoft's session replay technology to share users' website activity with third parties without their consent.
However, the court found that the plaintiffs failed to demonstrate any actual harm or damage as a result of this practice.
The decision is significant for companies using similar tracking technologies and could have implications for consumer data protection laws in the future.
