The law requires campaign advertisers, as well as entities that host ads such as Meta, to publicize information about the ads they run.
FILE - Facebook's Meta logo sign is seen at the company headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif., on, Oct. 28, 2021. Attorney General Bob Ferguson announced Friday that a judge ruled that Facebook parent company Meta intentionally violated the state’s campaign finance transparency law.
The law requires campaign advertisers, as well as entities that host ads such as Meta, to make information about the ads that run on their platforms available for the public to see “in a timely manner,” according to a release from the AG’s office.In July, Ferguson filed a summary judgment motion against Meta, arguing that the company had violated the law hundreds of times since December 2018.
The judge concluded Friday that Meta had repeatedly and intentionally violated the law and ordered the company to pay penalties. The exact amount is to be determined at a later date.Because the violations were intentional, though, the court can triple the amount for punitive damages.
