tl;dr: A New Mexico jury found Facebook liable for deceiving users about privacy protections in the Cambridge Analytica case, ruling the breach affected the state's entire population of 2+ million people. The judge will now determine damages, with the state seeking the maximum $5,000 per violation across 2+ million violations. New Mexico was the only state to pursue this case, as other states released Meta from Cambridge Analytica liability as part of an $18 billion child safety settlement in August. | |
