Meta Platforms Inc. failed in a bid to challenge a class action suit in the UK that alleged Facebook abused its dominant position and exploited its users personal data.
The UK's Court of Appeal refused to permit Meta and Facebook's UK unit to challenge a competition appeals court which had greenlit a revised version of the lawsuit. The court rejected Meta's appeal at a hearing on October 7, but only published the detailed ruling on Friday.
