Perplexity AI sued over alleged data sharing with Meta, Google
Technology
Perplexity AI is in hot water after being hit with a proposed class-action lawsuit.
The suit claims Perplexity secretly shared user data with Meta and Google using hidden tracking tools, without asking for permission.
If these claims hold up, it could mean trouble under California's tough privacy laws.
Perplexity denies sharing user data
The lawsuit says Meta and Google could watch how people use Perplexity's platform thanks to these tracking tools.
Perplexity strongly denies this, saying, We do not share user data with Meta or Google.
The case is sparking bigger conversations about how tech companies handle our personal information—and could set new rules for protecting privacy online.
