Google faces lawsuit over alleged privacy breach by Gemini AI assistant

New Delhi, Nov 12 (UNI) Tech giant Google has been accused of using its Gemini AI assistant to unlawfully track the private communications of users across its Gmail, instant messaging, and video conferencing platforms.
According to a lawsuit, users of Gmail, Chat, and Meet were previously given the option to enable Google’s artificial intelligence program. However, the complaint alleges that Google later activated Gemini without user consent, allowing it to monitor and collect private data from these services.
The suit alleges that although Google provides an option to disable Gemini, users must navigate through complex privacy settings to do so. “Unless they take that step, Google uses Gemini to access and exploit the entire recorded history of users’ private communications, including every email and attachment sent and received in their Gmail accounts,” the complaint stated.
The suit further alleges that Google is violating the California Invasion of Privacy Act, a 1967 law that prohibits surreptitious wiretapping and recording of confidential communications without the consent of all parties involved.
The proposed class-action lawsuit further accuses Google of violating the California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA) a 1967 law that prohibits secret recording or interception of confidential communications without the consent of all parties involved.
