Google has been sued in the United States over claims of them illegally tracking people browsing in private mode.
 
The potential class-action suit seeks $5 billion from Google and their owner Alphabet Inc.
 
US Law firm Boies Schiller and Flexner filed the claim on Tuesday in a San Jose federal court in California, claiming that Google "cannot continue to engage in the covert and unauthorized data collection from virtually every American with a computer or phone.”
 
Google denies these claims.
