Google and Yahoo! sued for ‘illegal gambling ads’
Some gambling ads on Google, Yahoo! and other major websites are illegal in California, according to a new lawsuit.
The 60-page filing, presented in San Francisco Superior Court, alleges that the companies sell rights to web advertisements based on searches for terms such as “illegal gambling,” “internet gambling” and “California gambling.”
The online businesses also use geotracking software to target particular regions, including California, for illegal gambling ads, according to the lawsuit.
The lawsuit demands that the companies stop accepting the advertisements and give California “millions of dollars in ill-gotten gains,” said attorney Ira Rothken, one of several attorneys from firms involved in the class-action lawsuit.
