If you've used an Android phone in the last nine years, you could be in line for a payout from Google. A class action lawsuit alleging the company collected mobile data from Android devices without users' knowledge is nearing its end — and up to 100 million people may be eligible to claim a share of a $135 million settlement.
The case, Taylor v. Google LLC, alleged that Android devices were quietly sending data to Google in the background, burning through users' cellular data without permission. Google hasn't admitted any wrongdoing, but it has agreed to pay up, and the official claims website is now live.
