Google wants lawsuit concerning UK internet users' privacy to be filed in California not in UK
Google told the high court on Monday that it should throw out claims that it secretly tracked the browsing habits of millions of iPhone users, and insisted that the lawsuit must be filed in California, where it is based, not in a British courtroom.
It is the 1st group claim brought against Google in the UK, where hundreds of people are planing to sue Google if the test case gets the green light.
Google is accused of secretly monitoring millions of iPhone users behaviour by overriding security settings on the iPhone, iPad and desktop versions of the Safari web browser.
Google has a UK specific site, As well as employees selling ads locally, which led to some arguments that if It makes money in th UK. It is ludicrous for it to claim that, despite all of this very commercial activity, it won't answer to British courts.
