Class actions filed under the Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) have risen as part of increased scrutiny on tracking technologies in general. What started as a law to protect video rental history is now largely being aimed at companies who share identifiable video viewing information via the Meta tracking pixel without user consent.

- The history of VPPA
- How it’s been applied to bring class actions against web tracking
- Trends in litigation and recent settlements
- How companies can mitigate the risks that come with using tracking technologies
- Strategies for complying with VPPA
