Question Presented (from Petition)

1. Whether basing Article III standing to seek damages on a mere risk of harm, without evidence that the harm ever materialized, is inconsistent with this Court's holding just a few months later in TransUnion LLC v. Ramirez.

2. Whether purchasing a product or service automatically creates a "financial injury" cognizable under Article III, even if the product or service provided precisely the benefit the consumer bargained for.

3. Whether a class can be certified (or remain certified) when many class members suffered no Article III injury.

Question Presented (AI Summary)
