Netflix Ordered to Mediate over Alleged Video Privacy Protection Act Violations

The Hunton privacy blog reports that:


A consolidated litigation against Netflix was ordered to private mediation pursuant to an agreement between the parties.  The plaintiffs allege that Netflix’s practice of maintaining customer movie rental history and recommendations after their subscriptions are cancelled violates the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (“VPPA”). In August 2011, several similar cases against Netflix were consolidated by a federal court in California.
