"Get Your Share: How to Claim Money from Facebook's $725 Million Settlement"
Meta, the parent company of Facebook, has agreed to pay out $725 million to settle a lawsuit over personal data privacy on the social network. The settlement will distribute “points” to claimants for every month they had an account between May 24, 2007, and Dec. 22, 2022, and then split the money based on those numbers. The deadline to submit claims is Aug. 25, and the deadline to opt out of the settlement is July 26. The settlement's individual payouts will depend on how many people submit claims and how long they had an account on the platform.
