The state of Texas has filed a lawsuit against Allstate, accusing the insurer of unlawfully collecting consumers' driving data from their cellphones. The lawsuit alleges that this data was then used to justify increases in insurance rates.
This legal action highlights concerns regarding privacy and the use of personal data in the insurance industry. The outcome of the lawsuit could have implications for Allstate's data collection practices and its relationship with policyholders.
Such a lawsuit from a state regulator poses a significant legal and reputational risk for Allstate, potentially leading to substantial fines, mandated changes in business operations, and a negative impact on consumer trust.
