This is a bit dated, but the case it not yet resolved. If you search it its still pending and in mediation. Life360 is looking to limit who it sells the info to in order to resolve the case. There is no debate that they were selling the info.

No kids. Just alcoholics for relatives. Yes. Being able to track their location during a bender would be great, simply for some damage control.

That was before we changed states to live the fuck alone, just man and wife ~and three pitbulls, four cats, a bunny, and now three pekin ducks~
