Thousands of AARP users could be entitled to compensation of up to £154 ($237) following a major data breach settlement that revealed the organisation had shared members' video viewing data with Facebook for targeted advertising — a practice that has sparked privacy lawsuits across the United States.
With class action payouts surging in 2025, over-50s who interacted with AARP.org are being urged to file their claims before the deadline expires. The settlement comes amid renewed scrutiny of Meta's data-sharing practices and growing concern over how personal information is being used for ad targeting.
