's Court of Appeal has removed a final legal hurdle in her years-long struggle to launch a privacy-related class action lawsuit against Facebook. 's appeal court dismissed an appeal by Facebook claiming the terms of the proposed suit were vague and that the class action process itself was not the best to pursue Douez's concerns. The appeal court's ruling means the class action lawsuit will now return to B.C. A previous class action lawsuit over sponsored stories resulted in a $20 million settlement in the United States. According to the appeal court ruling, Facebook has not filed a response to Douez' claim.
