Data Broker Radaris Loses Domains in Privacy Fight

Radaris, a consumer data broker, has been sued for allegedly violating a New Jersey privacy law by publishing personal information on state law enforcement officials. The company has a history of ignoring requests to remove personal information from its people-search services. A lawsuit was filed against Radaris, which was met with evasive responses from the company's attorneys. As a result, a judge ordered the transfer of the radaris.com domain and over a dozen other related domains. This action was taken due to Radaris' alleged failure to comply with the privacy law, which allows for significant fines against non-compliant data brokers. The transfer of domains is a consequence of the company's actions in the lawsuit.
