According to a filing with the US Court for the Northern District of California, Google settled to pay $350 million over a security bug on its former social media platform, Google+. Namely, the case goes back to 2018 when Google found out in March 2018 that its system exposed the personal data of millions of users on its Google+ platform.
According to the filing, Google’s executives were aware of that yet decided not to disclose such information either to the public or the shareholders.
