Connecticut Attorney General William Tong co-led a bipartisan coalition of 45 attorneys general urging Congress to pass the Kids Online Safety Act. This was a legislative advocacy effort, not a new enforcement action; the release discusses prior investigations into platforms’ effects on children and a separate Meta settlement.
Colorado, the FTC, and a bipartisan group of state attorneys general sued Toast, alleging misleading claims about its subscription services and financial products, undisclosed fees, and obstacles to cancelling subscriptions. The coalition is asking the court for an injunction, monetary relief, civil penalties, and other relief; the press release does not report an imposed penalty.
The FTC and state and local co-plaintiffs filed a lawsuit alleging Toast imposed hidden and unauthorized fees, enrolled restaurants in add-ons without consent, obstructed subscription cancellations, and misrepresented customer support availability. The complaint is pending in federal court; the press release announces no monetary penalty or imposed remedy.
The FTC sued the Genesis Tech enterprise and its owners for operating deceptive internet-based subscription schemes. The defendants allegedly misled consumers about subscription terms, billed without authorization, and made cancellation difficult. The court granted a temporary halt to the operations pending trial.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton launched an investigation into Meta's Meta AI Glasses over allegations of unlawful facial biometric data collection, deceptive privacy practices, and unauthorized sharing of user data with subcontractors. The investigation follows concerns that the glasses' always-on recording mode lacks proper user notice, planned facial recognition features would collect data without consent, and private user videos are accessed by third-party annotators in Kenya. The AG issued a Civil Investigative Demand to Meta to determine violations of Texas privacy laws.
