$100 million in unclaimed Facebook privacy settlement funds to be redistributed: Here’s how much you could receive
Millions of Facebook users who received money from the platform’s massive privacy settlement are set to receive another payment after a federal court in California approved a second distribution of unclaimed funds.
The new payments come from a $725 million class action settlement involving Facebook. The lawsuit accused Facebook of sharing users’ personal information with third parties without their permission. The case included allegations related to the Cambridge Analytica data scandal and raised concerns about how Facebook handled user data. Facebook agreed to the settlement but denied any wrongdoing.
