Google has no duty to refund gift card scam victims, judge finds
Briefly

Judge Freeman ruled that May's economic harm stemmed from scams, not any wrongdoing by Google. She noted May didn't use gift cards properly or prove a refund duty.
The ruling emphasized that Google had no obligation to refund scammed customers since no public policy suggests such a duty. May's case didn't demonstrate that her harm outweighed Google's benefits.
