Property Managers Not Liable for Age-Targeted Ads on Facebook
Briefly

A 55-year-old woman, Neuhtah Opiotennione, attempted to sue property managers for not advertising to her age group on Facebook. However, the Fourth Circuit determined that she lacked standing as she could not prove that she experienced a specific injury resulting from the omission of advertisements aimed at younger consumers. This ruling emphasizes the necessity for claimants to demonstrate a direct connection between the alleged wrongdoings and personal harm to move forward with legal action.
The Fourth Circuit ruled that Opiotennione lacked standing to sue property managers for targeted advertisements since she did not demonstrate a specific injury linked to their actions.
Judge Allison Jones Rushing highlighted that for any legal action to proceed, there must be a demonstrable injury that can be traced back to the defendant's conduct.
