Google has agreed to pay a total of $29.5 million to settle two separate lawsuits filed by Indiana and Washington, D.C., over its "deceptive" location tracking practices. The search and advertising giant is ordered to pay $9.5 million to DC and $20 million to Indiana after the states sued the company over charges that the company tracked users' locations without their express consent. The settlement adds to the $391.5 million Google agreed to pay to 40 states over similar allegations last month. The company still faces two other location tracking lawsuits in Texas and Washington.
