When you break state laws, yes, the state actually is the victim. Like speeding.

>The attorneys general said Google misled users about its location tracking practices since at least 2014, violating state consumer protection laws.
The people they illegally texted are NOT the victims.

No... Because someone was killed, they would then also be a victim. The state would still want their fine for speeding, though.
