Sheryl Sandberg, a former highest executive officer of the Meta Platform, was told to save the message, but deleted e -mails related to Litigation against Facebook’s Cambridge Analytica Privacy Sandal on Tuesday. It was approved by the government.
Deputy Prime Minister Trava Star, Judge’s Delaware Chanced Court, indicates evidence that Sandberg has erased a message that is likely to be related to shareholder lawsuits using his personal account under a pseudonym. He said.
With this sanctions, Sandberg makes it difficult to tell her about the story in the non -JU trial scheduled for April and avoid responsibility. The judge has also ordered the cost of sanctions on sanctions covered by shareholders, including the retirement system of a huge teacher in California.
“Sandberg has been selectively deleted from the Gmail account, so it is likely that the most sensitive and evidence replacement has disappeared,” Raster wrote in his opinion on Tuesday.
Meta and Sandberg lawyers did not respond immediately to the comment request.
Sandberg claimed that she was approaching a personal account, rarely used it for business, and when she went, the information was saved because she was copied to a message.
Raster has imposed a higher standard for “clear and convincing evidence” instead of “dominance” for Sandberg’s positive defense.
When this case was raised in 2018, the data from millions of users from Cambridge Analytica, a political consulting company that Facebook worked for a successful campaign for the US President of Donald Trump in 2016. It became clear that it was possible to access.
Shareholders have appealed to the company’s company’s company, which is said to have damaged investors by continuously violating the 2012 consent order with the Federal Trade Commission to protect user data.
Shareholders are also personally responsible for founder Mark Zuckerberg, as the company’s Board of Directors claims to pay a large fine to FTC to pay $ 5 billion in FTC in 2019. I claim that there is no. According to the court’s record, Zuckerberg is expected to abdicate the second time before the start of the trial.
In 2023, Raster refused to reject the lawsuit. He stated that it was a case that was truly a huge scale, including suspicion of wrongdoing.
The shareholder was also the Chief of Staff of the former President Joe Biden, and asked Raster to sanction Jeffrey Jeans who used and deleted personal emails when they were at the Meta Board of Directors. The judge said that after the Cambridge Anality Cascandal in 2018, he participated in the Meta Committee in 2018 and was not a company officer, so the ZIENTS message was not so appropriate.
