Google’s request to dismiss a lawsuit accusing the company of violating federal wiretap laws was denied, Reuters reported. Google mistakenly intercepted emails, user names, passwords and user data from Wi-Fi networks between 2008 and 2010 while they were creating the Street View application.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals refused Google’s bid to be exempt from the Wiretap Act, which regulates the collection of content on wire and electronic communications.
