$200 billion, and a review in 12 months time?

That's 5 years revenue. $100 per user, sounds reasonable. Facebook can put in an easy "claim your $100" button on their site. Would that just be a "cost of doing business"?

Interesting challenge: how to design that button to make it conform to mandated guidelines on its appearance, size, position and wording whilst also making it look enough like the sort of probable-scam advert users generally ignore to limit the number of Facebook members who actually claim it. Facebook probably has data to help them with that too :D

would you take that money?

yes, sure. I'm not a FB shareholder. I'll take the 100, and the GDPR them to make them forget that I ever took the money.

Except you couldnt GDPR them, as they are allowed to save data if its business critical, which I would argue "XYZ took the 100$" is
