If You’ve Had a Facebook Account For at Least 10 Years, You Might Have a Chance to Get in on This Settlement.

A U.S. District Court granted preliminary approval for a $90 million settlement with Facebook’s parent company (Meta Platforms). Why is Facebook settling with Facebook Users? According to fbinternettrackingsettlement.com, this is “to resolve a long-running class action accusing Facebook of tracking its subscribers’ activities on non-Facebook websites — even while signed out of their Facebook accounts.”. Basically, if you were a Facebook user in the U.S. and visited non-Facebook websites that displayed the Facebook Like button, you could get a piece of the pie.

Although Facebook's parent company Meta Platforms denies that it violated any law, they have agreed to the Settlement to "avoid the costs and risks associated with continuing this case".
