Google is settling a class action lawsuit over unauthorized recordings made by its Assistant devices, with a proposed payout of $68 million. The suit followed a 2019 report revealing that human contractors listened to recordings triggered by false activations, potentially capturing private conversations. Eligible users could receive between $2 and $56 based on their involvement with affected devices.

Microsoft-owned Nuance has agreed to pay $8.5 million to settle a class action lawsuit related to the MOVEit Transfer data breach, which exposed the personal information of over 1.2 million individuals. While Nuance denies any liability, the settlement aims to resolve claims that the company failed to secure data against the vulnerabilities exploited by the Clop ransomware gang. The case highlights ongoing concerns regarding cybersecurity and liability in supply-chain breaches.
