FTC to Google re Wi-Fi data capture: case closed

Posted on October 27, 2010July 3, 2025 by Dissent

The FTC has closed its investigation into the Google Street View wi-fi mess without levying any fines or penalties.  A copy of the FTC’s letter to Google can be found here.  It apparently helped Google that they announced a new Privacy Director and other changes in response to other countries’ investigation into the situation.

Hat-tip, Chris Soghoian
