Meta has agreed to pay $25 million to settle a lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump against the social-media company after it suspended his Facebook and Instagram accounts following the January 6 Capitol riot in 2021.
The settlement marks a major victory for Trump, who previously criticized social-media companies for censoring him four years ago but has lately welcomed their chief executives into his inner circle. Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg is one such executive who embraced the new administration and even attended Trump’s inauguration.
