New Mexico, Google back in court over ed tech allegations

New Mexico Attorney General Hector Balderas filed an appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit to have Children's Online Privacy Protection Act claims against Google reinstated, MediaPost reports. The claims are related to Google's education technology products and their alleged collection of minors' data without parental consent. The U.S. District Court for the District of Wyoming dismissed the claims in September 2020 before Balderas' recent appeal. The motion comes after Balderas and Google recently settled separate COPPA claims.
