That noise you just heard was Zuckerberg's head hitting the desk! Meta ordered to pay $25B in penalties by a New Mexico court resulting from the data privacy case related to the Cambridge Analytica scandal from nearly a decade ago. A Santa Fe NM jury found in September that Meta was liable for misleading state citizens about how it safeguards and collects user data and prevents harmful information from flourishing on its services. The penalty appeared in a court filing on Oct 21 and showed an initial award of $219.5B which was cut down to $25B. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/10/21/meta-new-mexico-cambridge-analytica-penalty.html #Meta #Lawsuit #JuryAward #DataPrivacy #Data #CambridgeAnalytica #FaceBook #Misrepresentations #SocialMedia #Safety #ChildSafety
