If you're scared about Microsoft tracking your UX engagement on a website, the best way to make sure your sex life stays private is to file it in federal court.
I'm pretty sure this person was just looking for a reason to sue, and then tried to construct the most salacious situation to sue about.
I'm not against them suing, I think web tracking is evil, so more power to them, but I definitely feel like a lawyer helped architect the actual complaint
Well if she was just looking for any reason to sue, well congrats to her then. She stumbled across a really good one.
