Good. Maybe they can extract a fee from FB that will actually hurt them.

Legal industry reporting calls the underlying matter a "$30 billion class action lawsuit," so it'll be interesting to see how that matter proceeds now that Facebook has lost its first dispute against standing.

As opposed to bottom feeding tech companies? If not through class action, how else would you suggest aggrieved users seek redress (the right to do so having been enumerated by statute)?

Bingo. Private rights of legal action make markets work properly.

Theoretically they could do that. It depends if the tort laws actually inflict enough damage to force change.

It seems to be the case that a lot of companies instead focus their resources on tort reform bills to neuter the laws.

American Capitalists: We don't need a new law, if a company commits a tort you can sue them for damages ... but don't use bottom-feeding lawyers who are constantly targeting reputable businesses.

And definitely don't all of you do it at once, and please we insist you sue us for our acts in a forum of our choosing.
