Meta ordered to pay $25 billion in New Mexico Cambridge Analytica ruling

Original: Meta ordered to pay $25B penalty in New Mexico Cambridge Analytica case

A New Mexico court has ordered Meta to pay a $25 billion penalty over the Cambridge Analytica scandal, in which the data of millions of Facebook users was harvested without consent for political profiling. If upheld, it would be one of the largest privacy penalties ever imposed on a technology company, years after the scandal first broke in 2018.

Why now: A record-setting $25 billion penalty against one of the world's biggest tech companies over a landmark privacy scandal is major news with broad implications for data regulation.
