Arizona attorney general Mark brnovich has filed a lawsuit against Google over claims the company illegally tracked Android users’ location without their consent.

Suit argues Google kept location tracking running in the background for certain features, like weather and for web searches using its search engine and Chrome browser. Only when a user dug further into the Android system settings and turned off broader system-level tracking did Google stop surreptitiously siphoning location data.
