( May 19, 2025, 23:08 GMT | Official Statement) -- MLex Summary: LiveRamp asked a federal judge in California to dismiss an array of privacy claims against the data broker, saying there is no allegation that LiveRamp misrepresented the data it collects about people. "Plaintiffs’ theory would impose sweeping new rules for the online advertising industry and deem illegal longstanding practices that help keep the internet free.
