Lawyer Mark Zuckerberg files lawsuit against Facebook.
In an unprecedented move, a U.S. lawyer named Mark S. Zuckerberg has filed a lawsuit against the Meta Corporation, alleging breach of contract due to the suspension of his professional Facebook page.
Zuckerberg, a lawyer based in the U.S. with 38 years of practice, has been using his professional Facebook page for advertising purposes. Over the years, he has spent over $11,000 on Facebook ads.
The lawsuit, filed in the state of Indiana, claims that Zuckerberg's profiles have been repeatedly suspended, with the most recent incident occurring in May of this year and still not being reactivated.
The allegations state that the suspension is due to accusations of impersonating a prominent user on the platform. The lawsuit further alleges that Meta suspects an attempt to mimic the platform's founder and CEO, Mark Zuckerberg.
Interestingly, Zuckerberg's professional Facebook page was reportedly suspended as early as 2011 by American and international media. However, the page was often reinstated after suspension, although this process took months each time.
The plaintiff, who specializes in insolvency law, believes that Facebook has breached the contract by not providing the agreed-upon consideration for his advertising expenses. As a result, Zuckerberg is demanding that the court order Facebook to refrain from suspending his profiles.
The defendant in the case, the Meta Corporation, has not yet publicly responded to the allegations. The legal name of the prosecutor in the case is not specified in the provided search results.
The lawsuit was filed against the Meta corporation, which operates an online network, and is led by a namesake of the plaintiff. The lawsuit also claims that the plaintiff's profiles are always accused of impersonating a prominent user, a practice that Zuckerberg finds unjustified and damaging to his professional reputation.
