Report: Google to Pay $7M to Settle Wi-Spy Case With More Than 30 U.S.
Attorneys General
http://j.mp/14DUBhq (All Things D)
"Google will soon settle with the attorneys general representing more
than 30 U.S. states over its Street View cars collecting data from
unsecured Wi-Fi networks, multiple sources said. Google is to pay $7
million, to be distributed among the attorneys general, according to a
person familiar with the matter. That person said the agreement is
close to being finalized, and should be announced early next week."

And if true, that's $7M more than Google should be paying. Reference:
