Over 3 lakh Australians can claim share of Meta’s AUD 50 million privacy breach payout

Right now, more than 311,000 Australian Facebook users can apply for a slice of a AUD 50 million compensation fund from tech giant Meta – the largest ever payment for a breach of Australians’ privacy.

But the clock is ticking. Even if you’re eligible, you only have until December 31 2025 to make your claim. Similar payouts have already begun in the United States.
