This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 49%. (I'm a bot)
> US-based Facebook Inc has lost a preliminary bid to dodge a privacy lawsuit filed against it by Australia's Information Commissioner over the Cambridge Analytica scandal, after a court ruled the lawsuit could be served on it outside Australia.
> Australia's Information and Privacy Commissioner, Angelene Falk, has alleged the personal data of more than 300,000 Australian Facebook users was disclosed between March 2014 and May 2015 for purposes other than those for which it was collected - a breach of Australia's Privacy Act.
> The Information Commissioner launched legal action against Facebook Inc and Facebook Ireland in March this year for alleged breaches of the Privacy Act.
> In a bid to have the order permitting service of the lawsuit on it outside Australia set aside, Facebook Inc had argued it did not carry on business in Australia.
> Justice Thawley said on Monday the Information Commissioner had made out a prima facie case - meaning a case on the face of it - that Facebook Inc was carrying on business in Australia, and was collecting and holding personal information in Australia at the relevant time.
> "While these matters remain to be established at trial, the court held the matters were sufficiently arguable to justify service outside of Australia and subjecting Facebook Inc to proceedings in Australia," the Office of the Information Commissioner said in a statement.
