Hulu sued by its own insurance company over "zombie cookies"
http://j.mp/HpkI46 (Hollywood Reporter_
"On Wednesday, Hulu was sued by its insurer, Hartford Casualty
Insurance Company, which is seeking a confirmation that it doesn't
have to provide coverage on claims that Hulu is violating consumer
privacy by tracking users' online activity with cookies and other
identifiers on users' computers. At issue in the insurer's lawsuit is
whether insurance concepts like "bodily injury" and "property damage"
apply to the alleged harm that entertainment fans experience when
watching their favorite TV shows and movies online."
