One of his users Facebook argues that the social network failed to take action against a fake page set up to take revenge by displaying pornographic photos of her from her ex-boyfriend. So he decided to go to the authorities by filing a complaint. The girl asks the social network to pay 0.10 dollars for each subscriber of the page. The total amount reaches 123 million dollars, as reported by the The Wrap.
Meryem Ali filed a lawsuit against Facebook and her ex-boyfriend, Adeel Shah Khan, who allegedly created a revenge page with pornographic material on Facebook featuring Ali's ex-girlfriend. Ali claims that all the photos they were photoshopped and displayed fake shots of her body. In fact, some of them presented a sexual act.
Ali learned about the page from family members who got invitations from their friends. Of course when he found out about the page of revenge or revenge porn as the term is, he reacted immediately. He started making repeated requests on Facebook asking her company to delete the page, to no avail.
Immediately afterwards, he contacted the Houston Police Department and miraculously the page disappeared from Facebok.
The lawsuit he has filed “seeks to expose the false mechanisms protectionFacebook's "Privacy Policy." In addition, he adds that in other similar cases Facebook has paid millions of dollars.
