Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed another lawsuit against Google.
As part of the lawsuit, Paxton’s seeking a “temporary and permanent injunction” to force Google to “cease its misleading practices,” as well as “civil monetary penalties for past misconduct,” a press release said. According to Paxton’s office, Google hired iHeartMedia to produce ads in Dallas-Fort Worth and the Houston area that promoted a Google smartphone called “Pixel4.”
“iHeartMedia realized the script Google provided would be misleading to consumers and explained these concerns, but Google refused to acquiesce and insisted on the DJs recording ‘first-hand testimonials’ for a product they had never used,” Paxton’s press release added.
