Consumer-friendly pricing has long been a priority for state AGs across the country, enforcing against junk fees and negative option practices. Now that focus is expanding to algorithmic pricing, with New York, for example, investigating Instacart’s algorithmic pricing practices and championing a ‘One Fair Price’ legislative package.

In this episode of Regulatory Oversight, host Stephen Piepgrass sits down with colleagues Dave Navetta and Dan Waltz to explore how state AG enforcement is accelerating across privacy, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence, and to introduce Troutman Pepper Locke’s AI-fueled Regulatory Intelligence Platform. The discussion opens with a look at the evolving AG enforcement landscape, examining how state regulators have become more active, coordinated, and consequential for companies operating across the U.S. The group unpacks the inherent limitations of traditional research tools and data sourcing for responding to the fast-moving privacy, security, and AI enforcement environment and for providing proactive, risk-based compliance.

On July 14, 2026, a multistate group of 42 state AGs announced a $150 million settlement with direct-to-consumer genetic data testing company 23andMe related to a 2023 data breach involving 6.9 million customers’ data. The actual settlement funds, however, are limited to $18 million to be split among the states due to related bankruptcy proceedings involving the company. As part of the settlement terms, affected consumers may also file claims for potential monetary restitution. The resolution represents the largest AG multistate settlement involving a breach of consumer genetic data and marks an unprecedented AG intervention in bankruptcy proceedings that will have an impact on similarly situated companies in the future.
