It's not about any of our opinions. As the article says, there is a whistleblower from Meta saying that this is documented. The lawsuit is what's going to sort it out.

That just means it’s about the opinion of the government, which isn’t much better in my opinion (and is arguably worse).

No, it means it's the opinion of the jury. Their job is to determine fact.
