A court in Washington state has been urged to make Facebook parent company Meta pay more than $24 million for intentionally violating state law.

King County Superior Judge Douglass North recently ruled that Meta deliberately violated the state’s Commercial Advertiser Law, which mandates certain information on political advertisements be handed over when requested. There were 822 violations.
