Washington, DC: The US Supreme Court has heard arguments in the Spokeo lawsuit, which alleged Spokeo published false and misleading information about people without the victims’ knowledge or consent. The lawsuit was filed by Tom Robins, who alleged Spokeo published false information about him and marketed this information to employers while he was looking for work.
The United States Supreme Court has granted certiorari to determine whether Spokeo, Inc., should be held liable for violating the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Spokeo’s appeal was made after the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of plaintiff Thomas Robins, finding data broker Spokeo liable for publishing false information regarding his wealth, education and marital status. Spokeo purports to know the income, religion, credit status, number of people per household, spouse names, and the satellite view of a given individual’s home.
