According to a class action lawsuit, NBA Properties and Dapper Labs disclosed NBA Top Shot users\u2019 personally identifiable information to Meta without consent. <\/p>\n

NBA Top Shot is a digital trading card game that allows players to buy, sell and trade digital highlights from NBA games.<\/p>\n

Consumers who took legal action said\u00a0the act was against the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) and that it violated California privacy laws.<\/p>\n

NBA Properties and Dapper Labs have agreed to a $7.05 million payout to settle the class action lawsuit. <\/p>\n

WAL PHONE<\/p>\n

Walmart customers have 2 days to claim $53k settlement over data breach lawsuit<\/p>\n

\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n

They have not admitted any wrongdoing. <\/p>\n

Under the terms of the statement, class members affected by the alleged information disclosure can receive an estimated share between $36 and $122.<\/p>\n

The amount each class member will receive will depend on the number of claims filed in the lawsuit. <\/p>\n

Consumers who had an active Facebook account and an NBA Top Shot account between June 15, 2020, and January 30, 2025, are eligible to claim a payment. <\/p>\n

But they must submit a valid claim form by December 16, 2025.<\/p>\n

The final approval hearing for the NBA video privacy class action lawsuit settlement is scheduled for December 19, 2025.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, one week remains for Americans to claim up to $7,500<\/a> in a massive $177m settlement against the telecommunications giant AT&T.<\/p>\n

AT&T was accused of\u00a0failing to prevent two individual data leaks<\/a>\u00a0that compromised the private information of 7.6 million current account holders and 65.4 million former account holders.<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tWhat’s a class-action settlement?\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\t\t\tCLASS action lawsuits offer groups of people, or ‘classes,’ a way to band together in court.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

These suits are often brought by one or a few people who allege a company or other entity has wronged a large group of people.<\/p>\n

When a suit becomes a class action, it extends to all \u201cclass members,\u201d or people who may have similar complaints to those who filed the suit.<\/p>\n

Companies often settle class actions \u2013 offering payment to class members who typically waive their right to pursue further legal action by accepting money.<\/p>\n

These payout agreements frequently include statements by the defendant denying wrongdoing. Companies tend to settle class actions to avoid the costs of further litigation.<\/p>\n

Pollution, discrimination, or false advertising are a few examples of what can land a class action on a company\u2019s doorstep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"THOUSANDS of Americans are being urged to check if they are eligible to claim payments up to $122…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":348882,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[574],"tags":[64,63,726,2973,192404,192405,590,85],"class_list":["post-348881","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-basketball","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-basketball","tag-courts","tag-direct-payment","tag-money-us","tag-nba","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348881","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=348881"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/348881\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/348882"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=348881"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=348881"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=348881"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
