Google sues US gov’t agency’s overreach on Google Pay feature

Google has filed a lawsuit against the United States Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), disputing the agency’s decision to impose federal oversight on Google Pay.

Google contends that the legal challenge centers on a now-discontinued peer-to-peer payment feature previously part of Google Pay’s US operations.

The company argues that the CFPB’s oversight represents an overreach of government authority.
