What happened and what to do
In an article published on September 28, 2026, The Record reports that a New Mexico jury found Facebook misled consumers about its data privacy practices and violated the law nearly 44 million times.
To reduce similar risks, a company can map collected data, compare privacy notices with actual data use and retention flows, and monitor consent and data-subject requests. Auditable records and alerts for discrepancies can help identify issues and route them for correction.
