What happened
John Larancuent filed a proposed class action against Spokeo, Inc. The docket does not detail the specific claims, but given Spokeo's business and the personal-property nature of suit, the case appears to concern Spokeo's collection, use, or sale of consumer personal information. These are allegations in a newly filed case, not proven facts, and no settlement is indicated.
