Texas AG Accuses Netflix of Bait-and-Switch Advertising and Data Exploitation
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against Netflix, accusing the company of misleading advertising practices and exploiting user data. The lawsuit claims Netflix violated the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act by promoting itself as an ad-free and kid-friendly platform, while allegedly collecting and sharing user data with data brokers. Paxton argues that Netflix's introduction of an ad-supported streaming plan contradicts its previous promises and has led to the exploitation of user data for advertising purposes. The lawsuit seeks to block Netflix's data collection practices and disable autoplay features on children's profiles. Netflix has denied the allegations, stating that the lawsuit is based on inaccurate information and that the company adheres to privacy laws.
