The Irish Data Protection Commission has fined Meta €251 million for a 2018 Facebook 'View As' vulnerability that enabled theft of access tokens and exposed personally identifiable information (about 30 million users, including children). Investigations found violations of GDPR Articles 33 and 25 related to breach notification and data protection by design; Meta says it fixed the issue and intends to appeal.
