Apple Agrees to Pay $14.8M to Settle iCloud Storage Lawsuit
“Apple has agreed to pay out $14.8 million to U.S. residents to settle a class action lawsuit focused on the storage of user iCloud data on non-Apple servers. The complaint, filed back in 2019 in a California District Court, alleged that Apple had breached its iCloud server terms and conditions by storing user,” reports Mike Peterson in Apple Insider.
“Apple denies that it breached its promise that iCloud data is stored by Apple but has agreed to pay the sum to settle the class action lawsuit. According to the settlement’s website, the payout applies to anyone who purchased an iCloud subscription between September 16, 2015 and January 31, 2016. Users don’t need to do anything to join.”
