Does a video store privacy law apply online? The Supreme Court will decide.

The Supreme Court is examining the scope of the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) to determine its applicability in the modern digital era. Originally designed to prevent video rental stores from disclosing customer records, the court must now decide if this privacy law extends to digital tracking tools and newsletter subscribers. This ruling will significantly influence current and future lawsuits regarding how companies handle consumer data and privacy within the contemporary streaming landscape.
