META PLATFORMS INC-CLASS A was ordered on Wednesday to pay $25 billion to New Mexico after a jury found the company misled consumers about data privacy. The penalty follows a high-profile case involving Cambridge Analytica's harvesting of user data during the 2016 United States presidential campaign.
