Social media giant Meta allegedly allowed Netflix to peek into Facebook users' direct messages, breaking anti-competitive activities and privacy rules, explosive court documents claim.
The social media giant Meta allegedly allowed Netflix to access Facebook users' direct messages for nearly a decade, breaking anti-competitive activities and privacy rules, explosive court documents claim. The court documents, which were unsealed last week, are part of a major anti-trust lawsuit filed by U.S. citizens Maximilian Klein and Sarah Grabert, who claim Netflix and Facebook "enjoyed a special relationship" so that Netflix could better tailor its ads with Facebook.
Meta has said in the past that it does not disclose people’s private messages to partners without their knowledge and that the API access only gave partners an ability to reach inboxes, i.e. to send messages to users via API. "Meta didn’t share people’s private messages with Netflix," a Meta spokesperson told Fox Business on Tuesday.
