"Facebook Users in the US Eligible for $725 Million Settlement Claim"

TL;DR
US Facebook users have until Friday to claim their share of a $725 million lawsuit settlement. The class action lawsuit accused Facebook of allowing Cambridge Analytica and other third parties access to personal user information without consent. Facebook's parent company, Meta, denies wrongdoing but reached a settlement in December 2022. Users who used Facebook between May 24, 2007, and December 22, 2022, can apply for a share of the settlement, with applications closing on Friday. Exclusions include Facebook employees, legal representatives, and alleged co-conspirators. The payout is estimated to be around $2-3 per user.
