A British Columbia Supreme Court judge approved a $51 million class-action settlement between Facebook parent company Meta and 4.3 million users in four provinces.
Justice Nitya Iyer formally approved the settlement amount earlier this month. As a result, Meta is offering compensation to eligible residents of British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Newfoundland and Labrador for using their images without permission to advertise products in Facebook’s now-defunct sponsored stories feature.
