A group of U.S. attorneys is looking to speak with Starbucks customers from California, Florida and Pennsylvania as part of a potential privacy-related class-action lawsuit, ClassAction.org reports. Customers who went to Starbucks.com and changed their cookie settings to only "required cookies" may have had their privacy violated, the attorneys claim. The case alleges Starbucks continued to track customers "after they’ve declined all but required cookies."
