Ask HN: How much money did you get from the Facebook privacy settlement?
9 points by underlipton 7 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 10 comments
About $38 myself. ChatGPT gives an estimate of about $250 made off tracking my browsing activity between 2007 and 2022, so pretty sweet margins in the "violating privacy rights" enterprise. /s

How can we expect companies to respect consumer rights when they only get a slap on the wrist for violating them?



$20

I was hoping it’d be an actually meaningful amount, especially since I’m on disability.


I didn’t find out about it until it was too late to throw my name in the hat.

$38 is an insult.


Nothing. Filled out the form and heard nothing since.


I got no notification, just a deposit to the bank account I submitted


I got a payout today from BMO Bank to my Paypal account for $38


It's a privacy tax.


$4.86


$25


$31.22
