You know, people could not stop complaining about Alpha Bank ... and Meta is asking us (of all peoples), what our relationship is with the Moscow Exchange.

Board of Directors - USPTO, Digital Assets and Moscow Exchange To: Chollet, Nicki <nchol...@kilpatricktownsend.com> Cc: Meta_Defensive_Disputes <meta_defensive_dispu...@kilpatricktownsend.com>, cypherpunks <cypherpunks@lists.cpunks.org>, <inves...@fb.com>, Alexi Anania <a...@xny.io>, Harris, Adrienne A (DFS) <adrienne.har...@dfs.ny.gov> Ms. Chollet: Concerning the Moscow Exchange matter below, can you kindly provide xNY.io - Bank.org a description of Meta's Directors and Officers (DO) policies? The firm behind Cambridge Analytica and the Moscow Exchange timeline below seem to conflict with Citigroup's Metaverse and Money research. The Moscow Exchange has distinguished Meta's board as an extremist organization. But, it Meta's USDP digital asset innovation we find most alarming. We have shared our USDP concerns with New York State and our Moscow Exchange concerns with the Federal Government. As an ethical digital asset franchise, USDP vs. USDD is a riddle for Court. Our surveillance feedback is not to exasperate Meta's 'DO' exposure. However, Citigroup's Metaverse and Money research has Mr. Zuckerberg and Mr. Putin both quoted. We have a Blockbuster defense: https://www.mondaq.com/unitedstates/class-actions/1274274/back-to-the-future-how-a-30-year-old-statute-from-a-time-when-video-rentals-were-a-thing-is-driving-a-new-wave-of-class-action-lawsuits Perhaps you are old enough to recall when consumers used to have to go to video stores like Blockbuster Video to rent a movie. And perhaps you recall the excitement of scoring a copy of the always limited "new release." It was during these "archaic" times that Congress passed the federal Video Privacy Protection Act (VPPA) in response to a newspaper publishing Robert Bork's video rental history during his U.S. Supreme Court nomination. Fast forward to today, and you might be surprised to learn that some consumers are now using the VPPA, a 1988 law designed to prevent the "wrongful disclosure" of video tape sale and rental records, as fuel for a new wave of class action lawsuits against companies that offer video content on their websites. Plaintiffs in these new lawsuits seek to stretch the VPPA beyond just the VHS and Betamax tapes it was originally intended for, and apply the law to any videos on websites that are embedded with the code for Google Analytics and/or Meta Platforms Inc.'s Pixel tracking tool.1 In short, the lawsuits allege that companies using these tracking tools violate the VPPA because their websites track the videos that visitors watch and share this viewing data with third parties, namely, Google and Facebook. Please respond to our DO inquiry by March 31, 2023.
