Le Texas poursuit Netflix pour la collecte présumée de données sur des enfants

Le procureur général du Texas, Ken Paxton, a intenté un procès contre Netflix, accusant le service de streaming de collecter des données d'utilisateurs sans consentement, en particulier celles d'enfants. La plainte affirme que la plateforme est conçue pour créer une dépendance et que Netflix réalise des profits en vendant ces données.

La plainte allègue que Netflix exploite un programme de surveillance comportementale à grande échelle. Elle pointe du doigt des fonctionnalités comme la lecture automatique, considérées comme des outils permettant de maintenir les téléspectateurs, y compris les mineurs, engagés plus longtemps tout en extrayant des informations personnelles. M. Paxton a déclaré que l'entreprise a mis en place ce système pour collecter et tirer profit illégalement des données des Texans sans leur consentement.
