$725 Million Facebook Settlement Payment is Coming to Affected Users Following Data Privacy Breach Allegations
A $725 million Facebook settlement payment is coming to affected users following data privacy breach allegations directed towards the tech company, wherein the Facebook settlement payment had been approved in the federal court.
According to a report published in The US Sun, the Facebook settlement payment started after some users claimed that Facebook had their personal data accessible to others without even asking for permission, which the company strongly denied despite agreeing to settle using the Facebook settlement payment.
With the Facebook settlement payment, more than 15 million Facebook users who submitted valid claims within the deadline will expect to receive direct payments from the Facebook settlement payment, depending on how they want to receive their payment, may it be through physical mail or digital payment.
