Facebook parent company Meta has settled a class-action lawsuit over illegal data sharing for $725 million, and any users in the U.S. between May 2007 and the end of 2022 are eligible. Here’s how you can get your share. Head to FacebookUserPrivacySettlement.com and fill out the online form. You’ll need to indicate if you want to be paid with a gift card, via Venmo or Paypal, or directly into your bank account – they’re not sending out checks. You have until August 25th to register. If all 200 million or so U.S. users register, at some point late this year you’ll get a credit for $3 or $4.
