It is a violation of the VPPA to collect this for streaming services and prerecorded media. Scheduled broadcast and cable TV aren't covered.

I thought the 2013 amendment to the VPPA largely defanged it by allowing sharing with customer consent (which is probably one of the clauses in the million-word customer agreement nobody reads).

Pretty sure that’s why this lawsuit will have some legs - the deceptive way folks are opted in without really understanding what is happening.

I’m shocked to be agreeing with Ken Paxton but he’s right on this one.
