This lawsuit might be a long shot, but it’s not completely a foregone conclusion at this point. The state of Illinois has tougher privacy laws than most states, which may factor into the judge’s decision. On the other hand, this lawsuit — filed by two Illinois residents with the assistance of the Liberty Justice Center — has been filed in federal court, where assumptions about expectations of privacy won’t necessarily be quite as affected by state law stipulations.
