Case Study: Facebook

Created a specialized case study on Facebook. The issue of Facebook user privacy has had pronounced repercussions in terms of legal and financial setbacks for the company. The initial and consequential challenges marked the onset of a continuous stream of issues, year after year. Since 2012, Facebook has been persistently challenged and its ongoing issues in Europe stand out as significant challenges. In response to concerns about the power wielded by major tech corporations, regulatory authorities have introduced legislation aimed at reining in their influence and ensuring heightened transparency.
