Facebook to pay $650 million settlement over U.S. privacy dispute
A U.S. federal judge has given final approval to Facebook's $650 million payment to settle a privacy dispute between the California group and 1.6 million users in the U.S. state of Illinois.

Chicago attorney Jay Edelson sued Facebook in 2015, alleging the social network illegally collected biometric data to identify faces in violation of a 2008 Illinois privacy law.

During the trial, it emerged that Facebook was violating Illinois law by storing biometric data – digital scans of people's faces, in support of its face-tagging feature – without users' consent.

Grandfathered in

Anyone starting a social media platform now has to restructure financing

What zuck did is now no-no

Apparently you do not know math.

Or you think that $5.00 or so per worker is a stimulus?

The will of the people is the only legitimate foundation of any government, and to protect its free expression should be our first object.

~ Thomas Jefferson, Inaugural Address, 1801


It is not only vain, but wicked, in a legislator to frame laws in opposition to the laws of nature, and to arm them with the terrors of death. This is truly creating crimes in order to punish them.
