A court has ruled that Meta Platforms Inc. cannot delay the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) efforts to reopen a privacy case against the company. The FTC is seeking to amend a $5 billion 2020 privacy settlement with Meta, aiming to ban profiting from minors' data and expand curbs on the use of facial recognition technology. Meta has countered the FTC's move by highlighting its voluntary disclosure of two bugs in its Messenger Kids app and stating that it received no complaints from parents regarding these issues. The D.C. Circuit panel's decision against Meta's request for an emergency injunction underscores the ongoing legal battle between the social media giant and regulatory authorities over privacy concerns.
