Meta to Appeal $25 B New Mexico Privacy Penalty
Meta Platforms announced it will appeal the $25 billion penalty imposed by a New Mexico jury for privacy violations tied to the Cambridge Analytica data breach. The penalty follows a jury finding that Meta misled users and breached the state's unfair practices act; the judge reduced an earlier $219. 5 billion award to $25 billion, covering more than 43 million violations.
Earlier, a New Mexico district court trimmed a $219. 5 billion award after a jury found Meta liable for thousands of violations of the state's unfair practices act related to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, and the company said it would challenge the verdict.
