The Bose Knows... legally

According to a recent decision from a federal district court in Illinois, Bose Corp. may monitor and collect information about the music and audio files consumers choose to play through its wireless products and transmit that information to third parties without the consumers’ knowledge. 

Such action does not violate the federal Wiretap Act or the Illinois Eavesdropping Statute.

As such, the Court granted Bose’s motion to dismiss the plaintiff’s class action claims. more
