Meta ordered to pay $25 billion in New Mexico privacy case

• A New Mexico judge ordered Meta to pay $25 billion for misleading users about data privacy.
• The penalty stems from a lawsuit claiming Meta deceived users over their data privacy.
• The ruling follows a September decision in which jurors found Meta liable for over 43 million violations of state consumer protection laws.
• This is one of the largest penalties levied against Meta in history.
• The case is related to the Cambridge Analytica scandal during Donald Trump's first presidential campaign.
