What Happened: The trial that begins this week stems from a lawsuit filed by Meta shareholders, who claim the company, under Mark Zuckerberg’s leadership, permitted user data to be collected without consent, reported Reuters. The shareholders are seeking over $8 billion in reimbursement for fines and other costs incurred by Meta following the scandal.
