Potential Privacy Violations from the Daily Wire Our latest issue takes a look at potential privacy concerns affecting those who have Facebook accounts and watched videos on DailyWire.com. Attorneys suspect that tracking tools used on the site may be transmitting info to the social media giant in violation of the federal Video Privacy Protection Act. More on that below. From there, attorneys have reason to believe that American Airlines may have improperly closed some of its customers’ AAdvantage accounts – costing them all the airline miles they’ve built up. Then, we have information on an ongoing investigation into potentially toxic KitchenAid and Anolon cookware and a lawsuit claiming that Intel sold billions of defective CPUs. Keep reading for details on these stories, as well as a batch of new settlements that you may be able to claim. - Ty Armstrong, Writer/Community Manager | If you’re a DailyWire+ subscriber with a Facebook account and you’ve watched videos on DailyWire.com, your privacy may have been violated – and now, attorneys are gathering people to take action over the suspected violations. These claims are looking to proceed via a legal process known as mass arbitration, which is different from a class action. While there are no guarantees, those who sign up may be owed $2,500 under the Video Privacy Protection Act. You can read up on the investigation here. | American Airlines – AAdvantage Account Closed, Costing You Miles? Attorneys working with ClassAction.org believe American Airlines may have improperly closed certain customers’ AAdvantage accounts and retracted their miles in the process. Specifically, it’s been reported that some accounts were locked or shut down beginning around December 2019, when American Airlines began taking action against those suspected of violating its program’s terms by signing up for AAdvantage/Citi-branded credit cards using codes that were not intended for them. The attorneys believe American Airlines may not have had the right to close these accounts – and a lawsuit could be filed because of it.

| ~ In Other News ~ Attorneys working with ClassAction.org have reason to believe that certain non-stick cookware sold by KitchenAid and Anolon and advertised as “PFOA free” may, in fact, contain the toxic chemical PFOA. If so, lawsuits may be filed over the issue. Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) falls into a category of toxic chemicals called per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) that can accumulate in both the environment and the human body, causing various health and environmental problems. If you bought KitchenAid or Anolon cookware advertised as “PFOA free,” you can learn more about the investigation here. | A proposed class action is alleging that Intel has for years “knowingly” sold billions of central processing units (CPUs) with a design defect that leaves the chips vulnerable to cyberattacks – and the only “fix” significantly reduces computer performance for ordinary tasks such as video editing and gaming. The case specifies that the alleged design flaws present in Intel’s 6th through 11th generation of CPUs – which drive countless computers across the globe – can be easily exploited to steal sensitive data stored in a computer system’s memory, including passwords.
