Quote:

Facebook users can now apply for their share of a $725 million privacy lawsuit settlement if they had accounts from May 2007 to December 2022.

Facebook's parent company, Meta, is doling out the payments to settle a lawsuit alleging it allowed Cambridge Analytica, a former British political consulting firm used by the 2016 Donald Trump presidential campaign, to access about 87 million users' personal information.

To apply for the funds, people can apply online or by mailing their forms by Aug. 25.

The form requires you to input your name, address, contact information, birthday, Facebook handle and payment information.

In 2018, Cambridge Analytica allegedly paid Facebook developers for user data, which was then used to target voters in the 2016 election.

After the scandal surfaced, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg fielded questions from members of the U.S. Congress, who accused him of failing to protect the data.

Facebook settled for selling all your info to the Trump Campaign. If you had a facebook account between 2007 and 2022, Facebook owes you money!

I mean, you're gonna get a few bucks, maybe. But, you can force them to mail you a check, and that's kinda funny.

I applied for the Facebook thing a week ago or something. I doubt we'll get much money. The most I've ever got from a class action lawsuit was like $100 from wells Fargo :shrug:

$725M divided across 3 billion Facebook users.

Not worth the postage.

:lol:

I get that, I’m just saying it’s not worth the trouble.

Had to jump through hoops to get that $2.63 from Equifax a while back.

Eh, filling out a form isn't much trouble for me.

I don't care about the money, I just want to cause trouble for Facebook. Which is why I requested a paper check.
