Australian billionaire to spend up to $100m suing Facebook over scam ads

Australian mining magnate Andrew Forrest has already spent $60 million fighting Meta in court over fraudulent scam advertisements on Facebook, with legal costs potentially reaching $100 million. Before filing suit, Forrest — like Polish entrepreneur Rafał Brzoska — lobbied Meta and politicians without success. He could become the first person in the world to win a court case against Facebook.
