A widely shared thread alleges Meta pirated 3,000 adult films, got sued for $446M after the rights holder traced downloads to corporate IPs, and that another 20,000 films were later downloaded from a residential connection belonging to a Meta Reality Labs (Quest VR) executive. The details stem from ongoing litigation allegations, not court findings.
