CBS.com Viewing Information Shared with Facebook Complaint

July 14, 2022

If you have a Facebook account and watch CBS video clips online, is Facebook entitled to know what you’ve watched? The complaint for this class action alleges that Paramount Global Corporation, which owns and operates CBS.com, has violated the Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) by disclosing the personally identifiable information (PII) of CBS.com viewers, including a record of every clip they have watched, to Facebook, without the viewers’ consent.
