- A class action lawsuit was filed in 2018 after Facebook and Cambridge Analytica failed to delete Facebook user data that was unethically obtained.
- A federal judge has approved a deal between Meta and Facebook users for $725 million.
- Facebook users who used the social platform between May 2007 to December 2022 are eligible for a payout.
Facebook‘s parent company — Meta — is not new to class action lawsuits. But its most recent settlement may have broken a record in the US. And if you used Facebook between May 2007 to December 2022, you may be entitled to some of that money.
Last month, a federal judge approved a massive $725 million settlement for a lawsuit involving Meta. The company has agreed to the payment to settle a privacy class action lawsuit claiming Facebook shared personal data with third parties, including Cambridge Analytica.
