Found the case, it's against Facebook Payments. I'm actually surprised they have this info online as some court websites are very outdated or under a paywall. I know one website to pay tickets online in another county for example traffic tickets(red light cameras, etc) said it wasn't secure in Chrome yet they asked for sensitive info.

Then Facebook has a license in Ohio too since Messenger lets you send money to people over chat.

So maybe that's one way they can claim power over Facebook.

Looks like the last action on the case was 05/17/2019 where it was assigned to another judge. So wonder what the next steps are for this case, will be interesting to follow.

I was just curious about ECOT yesterday since that's the school I did my final years of high school and was wondering about where people would get their transcripts if say for college... Looks like records were being transferred to the last known district of residence, but there's also an email if you need help getting them it looks. I'm guessing probably where you lived when you were last in school then, probably not where you are now if you moved since then. The Educational Service Center of Lake Erie West in Toledo was the sponsor of ECOT.

Also looks like the server is at Franklin County courthouse, the judge there approved $300,000 to upgrade the server to preserve it, as the FBI is also looking into the school over the campaign contributions. Then the other big thing ECOT got in trouble over was the way of accounting attendance.

I liked ECOT. If I needed to ask questions I could send a email(they had a fake email system, wouldn't go to external addresses) or even call up... I felt they cared a lot more compared to the last public school I went to. Actually got way better grades too. But someone else who went to ECOT after me felt a bit different, so maybe things changed more since I went.

I wish we had more school choice in America, instead of the city school being the default. Wish more competition but I think schools in general feel threatened and enjoy having a monopoly on education. Then apparently it's easier to fire teachers at charter and private schools, so public school teachers can be lousy and have great job security.

Also other schools could try and claim they lost money too because of this, but aren't part of the lawsuit... Wonder how that works in the future if say Facebook lost and ordered to pay which is split between the schools. Can the other schools join in on the lawsuit or would they need to file separately? Not sure if it's technically considered a class action, since usually you get a notice about the lawsuit to join it automatically if you do nothing with a date to submit a claim or you opt-out to then file your lawsuit or get nothing. Be interesting if these schools won, and then other schools sue for the same amount... Then would FB have to pay out twice the amount? Unless they are only considering what those schools believe they lost directly that was spent on ad money, and not the total lost statewide, as that would make more sense - but I think they want the total money spent at FB total not considering which schools the funds originally came from. As ECOT had students in all 88 counties across the state, so it sounds like other schools not part of this lawsuit might be leaving money on the table if FB is found in the wrong.
