According to a statement from regulatory institutions, after investigating password storage of Facebook's parent company Meta Platforms' Irish subsidiary, the Data Protection Commission (DPC) in Ireland imposed a fine of 91 million euros (approximately 0.102 billion dollars) on them. The owner of Facebook had previously informed the Data Protection Commission that they inadvertently stored certain passwords of some social media users in plaintext format in their internal systems without encryption protection or measures. The commission began investigating the password leak incident in April 2019.
