Facebook could face a class action lawsuit

A couple of days ago the news of a new security problem on Facebook jumped. The social network has seen how a vulnerability has been exploited by attackers, and at least 50 million accounts have been hacked or their data has been accessed. This is the umpteenth security problem for the social network this year, which is seeing how users get tired.

So there appears to be a class action lawsuit going on in the United States. With the intention of reporting the social network for this new security problem.

A user in California and another in Virginia have made this decision and have already filed their complaints. Although it is expected that in the coming days there will be more Facebook users who will make a similar decision. So it would be expected that they will join forces in a class action lawsuit against the social network, which is not going through its best moment in these weeks. Since the creators of Instagram recently left the company.

The problems they have had with Mark Zuckerberg seem to be the main reason. The CEO of the company has not yet made a clear statement about this attack. The security breach has been recognized and is currently under investigation.

We will see how these complaints progress with Facebook and if the number of users who make a decision will increase or not. But it could be a serious problem for the most used social network in the world.
