Google has agreed to pay $8 million to the state of Texas to settle a lawsuit over deceptive radio ads promoting the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL handsets. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s office had accused Google of engaging in false, misleading, and deceptive acts and practices by having DJs read ad copy that made it sound like they had personally used the phones and loved their features, even though the phones had not yet been released at the time the ads ran.
