According to Gold 10 Data, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton sued Netflix on Monday, May 12, accusing the company of tracking and collecting user data without consent, including from children. The lawsuit alleges Netflix designed its platform with addictive features such as autoplay to deceive users, and falsely claimed that paid subscriptions protect users from data-driven advertising. Paxton’s office contends Netflix uses collected viewing habits, location data, and user interactions to build detailed user profiles, generating billions of dollars in revenue.
