United States Third Circuit

In a putative class action against stores that sell and lease office furniture and consumer electronics, alleging violations of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986 (ECPA), 18 U.S.C. section 2511, stemming from defendant's surreptitious monitoring of plaintiff's computer use via webcam and software, the district court's denial of motion for class certification is reversed where the court erred in applying the ascertainability precedent.
