A stockholder of Facebook made a books and records demand for the purpose of investigating potential director oversight claims in connection with the unauthorized release of Facebook user data to a data analytics firm, Cambridge Analytica. The stockholder alleged that the data breach likely violated a 2012 consent decree Facebook had entered into with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to settle prior data privacy breaches. Following a revived investigation by the FTC, Facebook agreed to a $5 billion settlement in 2019 to resolve the potential claims against Facebook and its Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg.
