Mark Zuckerberg, the founder and manager of Facebook, has been receiving many penalties for violating and marketing data privacy over the years. The billionaire, who has a personal fortune of approximately 120 billion dollars and pays millions of dollars every year to the courts for his crimes, has been added as a defendant in another case.
Mark Zuckerberg, who was registered as a defendant in a lawsuit brought against Cambridge Analytica executives and employees in 2018, is accused of sharing the data of more than 90 million Facebook users with the analytics company. According to the statements, Cambridge Analytica, which uses users’ data for political purposes, received direct assistance from Facebook. At least that was the court’s decision.
Tough times await Mark Zuckerberg
Explaining that hundreds of thousands of pages of information and documents about Mark Zuckerberg, who was added to the case as a suspect, were added to the case file, the attorney general also said that some of the employees made statements against the billionaire. DC Attorney General Karl A. Racine, announcing the incident with a tweet he shared on his Twitter account, stated that Zuckerberg was personally involved in the incident.
The Facebook front says, “The incidents happened about 3 years ago, when we filled out our complaint form. We will continue to defend ourselves fiercely and focus on the facts. He stressed that the accusations are unfounded.
In the incident that emerged in 2018, the analysis company used the data it received from Facebook to provide political rent. With the hearing of what happened, the credibility of both Zuckerberg and Facebook was shaken once again.
