Arrr mateys, gather 'round fer a tale of treasure and trouble on the high seas of cyberspace! Meta, the scallywag behind Facebook, has agreed to hand over a whopping $1.4 billion doubloons to settle a ruckus with the fine folks of Texas, led by their fearless Attorney General, Ken Paxton.

In the year of our Lord 2022, Paxton fired the first cannonball ‘gainst Meta, accusin' ‘em of plunderin' the biometric treasures of millions of Texas swabs without a scrap o' permission. Aye, ye see, when them landlubbers uploaded their jolly pictures and videos, Meta was sneakin' about like a cunning sea serpent, collectin’ their precious biometric data!

Now, the good folks of Texas weren’t about to let this piracy slide. They raised the ol’ Jolly Roger and set sail in pursuit of justice, lookin' to send a message to all those who dare to tread the treacherous waters of the digital realm without consent.

So, with a clink of coins and a shake of the captain’s hat, Meta agreed to settle, hopin’ this would calm the storm and keep ‘em from walkin’ the plank into further legal seas. Aye, it be a fine day for Texas, and a lesson fer all pirates of the internet!
