Subpoenas are flying in pension funds suit vs Facebook in Delaware resulting from inspection of its books and board comms (Thiel, Zuckerberg, Andreessen, Sandberg, et al) on why they allegedly overpaid the FTC at $5B to make it go away. Should be interesting how it plays out. /1

Facebook's law firm, Gibson Dunn, also received a subpoena which is interesting in light of the FTC reopening the $5B settlement, the appeal of a related dismissal being heard this spring in DC, and the $750MM+ settlement in NdCal for the MDL on the same case. /2

I still think the 53 page sanctions order against both Gibson Dunn and Facebook is the most important read about a big tech company cover-up and resistance to accountability ever produced. Let me share a few bits so you realize what Facebook caused the press to overlook here. /3

The Court goes through it systematically labeling bad faith in discovery, depositions, and other obfuscations. "One wonders if the lawyers on the other side began to question their own sanity." /4

I would highly recommend those interested in litigation, privacy/data law, antitrust dig into the 53 page sanctions. You can decide if this assessment is good or bad for Snyder's cv. /5

"This conduct is symptomatic of their larger strategy: object first, investigate later (and only when forced). And that strategy supports the finding of bad faith." /6

This is probably the gem paragraph of the 53 page sanctions. "and perhaps there's some minute chance that they were just incompetent… it's far more likely the misconduct was of a different, more nefarious sort." /7

Honestly, the court order here should be the official record for the press who still get details wrong as Facebook worked them hard on background and history was bent more towards Facebook's favor on the matter. Here is the full document. Bookmark it. /8

Blindly trusting the narrative of those in power has never caused anything bad to happen right?

Top was Cubby's last film, after he got BMW in as advertiser.
Bottom was his widow after they had dropped BMW for all things Brit (Astin Martin's ain't cheap cars to mess around wid). So, hello Vespa, the scooter heard round the world. (Had no idea there were so many motorcycle manufacturers. None.)
