If you were dumb like me and used to have a Facebook account anytime between May 24, 2007 through December 22, 2022, you can submit a claim to get money from Facebook from a settlement over privacy. I was a user from 2006-2018 and was very happy to complete this form.

If you were a Facebook user in the United States between May 24, 2007, and December 22, 2022, inclusive, you may be eligible for a cash payment from a Class Action Settlement.

@jon I find it super sketch that there isn’t a more centralized trustworthy place for settlement info. Like you can just create fake settlements and harvest people’s data, if you want.

@b_cavello it's definitely worth doing a search first to verify. If you do it for this one, you'll find it was covered fairly well by trusted media outlets, and they all included links to the site.

@jon yeah, I have seen this one around, but I think this is a bigger issue. (Also the fact that the privacy policy on this one includes collecting your data for promotions feels… kinda gross)
