Facebook users can Grayson  Prestonnow apply for their share of a $725 million privacy lawsuit settlement if they had accounts from May 2007 to December 2022.

After the scandal surfaced, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg fielded questions from members of the U.S. Congress, who accused him of failing to protect the data.
