Facebook is on the receiving end of a lawsuit filed by attorney Mark Zuckerberg.
In an unexpected turn of events, Mark S. Zuckerberg, an insolvency lawyer based in Indiana, has taken legal action against Meta Corporation, the parent company of Facebook. Zuckerberg, who maintains both a private and a professional profile on the platform, is alleging a breach of contract and seeking a court order to prevent Facebook from suspending his profiles.
Zuckerberg's professional Facebook page has been a subject of recurring suspensions over the past eight years. Each suspension, according to reports, was due to Meta accusing him of impersonating a prominent user. The lawyer claims that these suspensions have cost him thousands of dollars in advertising expenses, as he has not received the agreed-upon consideration for his ads.
The most recent suspension occurred in May of this year, and his professional page remains blocked. Prior to this, the page was reactivated after months of inactivity, despite prompt submission of necessary documents. In total, Zuckerberg's professional page has been suspended six times.
The lawsuit alleges that Meta's repeated suspension of Zuckerberg's profiles on its online platform constitutes a breach of contract. Zuckerberg is asking the court to order Facebook to refrain from suspending his profiles in the future.
It is important to note that the name of the judge filing the lawsuit against Meta is not explicitly mentioned in the search results. However, the closest relevant figure associated with legal action against Meta is Patrick Breyer, who filed a complaint against Meta’s measures related to chat control. This complaint does not explicitly state that Breyer's personal profile was repeatedly suspended.
Mark S. Zuckerberg, the plaintiff, suspects that Meta may be mistaking attempts to mimic the platform's founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg. Over the years, Zuckerberg has spent over $11,000 on Facebook ads for his professional page.
This lawsuit adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing relationship between Meta and its users, particularly those who use the platform for professional purposes. The outcome of this legal battle is likely to set a precedent for how Meta handles similar situations in the future.
