The president argues that the social media giant infringed on his rights by suspending his accounts after the January 6, 2021, US Capitol attack.
Meta Platforms has reached a $25 million settlement with U.S. President Donald Trump over the suspension of his social media accounts following the January 6, 2021, Capitol riots.
As part of the settlement, Meta will contribute $22 million to Trump's presidential library and $3 million to cover legal fees, resolving the lawsuit over the suspensions of his Facebook and Instagram accounts, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Trump’s lawsuit accused Meta of violating his rights by suspending his accounts, alleging the company coordinated with Democratic lawmakers to silence him.
The settlement does not require Meta to admit any wrongdoing in response to Trump's claims of censorship and rights violations.
This agreement comes on the heels of Meta’s recent policy adjustments, including ending its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs and revising its fact-checking procedures. Additionally, Meta made a $1 million donation to Trump’s inaugural committee, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg among several billionaires attending his swearing-in ceremony.
