Hmmmmmm, things may get pretty interesting....
Apparently Zuckerberg has allowed scammer ads to use images of people without their permission.
Guess they are too busy censoring those people with opposing views and could care less about those fraudulent ads.
But Andrew Forrest, billionaire founder and chairman of mining giant Fortescue Metal, alleges that Facebook breached Australia’s anti-money laundering laws for failing to act against cryptocurrency scam ads on its platform featuring celebrities, including himself

Quote:Australian billionaire and mining magnate Andrew “Twiggy” Forrest has launched a criminal case against Facebook, alleging the social media giant failed to prevent false cryptocurrency advertisements that used his image.
Mr Forrest argued in the case lodged in the Western Australia Magistrates Court that the social media platform breached Australia’s money laundering laws by failing to prevent false advertisements.
“The three charges filed in Australia allege Facebook was criminally reckless by not taking sufficient steps to stop criminals from using its social media platform to send scam, fraudulent and deeply dishonest advertisements to fraud Australian mums and dads and innocent users,” the billionaire told local news outlets.
“This legal action follows many attempts by me asking Facebook to prevent my image from being used by criminals to scam Australian users, innocent mums and dads, hard-working Australians, and hard-working people around the world,” said the chairman of the Fortescue Metals Group.
