Meta Fined $100 Million for EXPOSING Passwords in Plaintext

The Data Protection Commission (DPC) Ireland slaps Meta Platforms with a $100 million fine on Friday for exposing the plaintext passwords of a reported 600 million Facebook users to internal employees.

The DPC’s decision closes an inquiry brought against Meta Platforms Ireland back in 2019, after American security researcher Brian Krebbs broke the story in March of that year.
