On 3 February 2024, the District Court of Idaho issued a reversal of its ruling in the public lawsuit brought before the Court by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) against the data broker company Kochava, dismissing the FTC lawsuit. The court ruled that the FTC enforcement action against the data broker Kochava may continue. The FTC alleged that Kochava had sold sensitive location data from hundreds of millions of mobile devices that could be used to track consumers, in particular, to identify people's visits to reproductive health clinics, places of worship, homeless and domestic violence shelters, and addiction recovery facilities.
