“The California Invasion of Privacy Act regulates improper and unauthorized electronic surveillance, and protects the right of privacy, e.g., by requiring all persons to consent to recordings of their conversations. The Act proscribes several distinct and independent types of privacy invasions, including willful eavesdropping on or recording the contents or meaning of a confidential communication by electronic means. In addition to criminal liability, a person who commits such a privacy invasion is subject to civil liability for the greater of $5,000 per violation or three times the amount of actual damages sustained by the injured person, and may also be subject to an injunction.”
