Intoxalock, a company known for their ignition interlock device that prevents drunk driving, came under fire when they allegedly violated California's privacy laws by recording phone calls without consent. This transgression was noted to have occurred between May 18, 2021 and February 8, 2022, with the lawsuit citing that Intoxalock, operated by Consumer Safety Technology LLC, had contravened California Penal Code Section 632.7. This code makes it illegal to record conversations conducted over cellular or cordless phones without the agreement of all participants, as a measure to protect communicative privacy. The lawsuit has been settled for $1.75 million, with claimants potentially eligible for up to $5,000 in damages. To qualify, an individual must have conversed over the phone with Intoxalock's sales representatives within the specified period and must be associated with a California phone number and/or address.
