Did anyone see this?

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.

I’m not excited either. I didn’t know what to believe on the internet.

Hmm, interesting.

Was on FB from 2009 to 2015 and then briefly in 2017.
Saw early on that privacy was an issue.

I'm inclined to not bother with taking any of the settlement,
the less interaction again with Farce Book the better.

(some of us in several incurable illness support groups started calling it "Farce Book" because it was making more and more of a farce of privacy.)
