Software user plaintiffs will have a chance to re-plead some of their privacy claims against Microsoft Corporation after Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers issued a motion to dismiss ruling on Wednesday. The court held that the plaintiffs lacked standing and failed to state a claim for relief in its 13-page opinion.
As previously reported, the plaintiffs, businesses who use Microsoft’s software, filed suit alleging that the company shares customers’ data without their consent. The class action complaint contends that subcontractors, developers, and third-parties, including Facebook, received the information from Microsoft despite privacy policies promising otherwise. They state claims for relief under the federal Wiretap Act, the Stored Communications Act, and several Washington consumer protection and privacy laws.
