Facebook is to pay $10m (£6m) to charity to settle a lawsuit over the way it used "social" ads.
Known as a "sponsored story", the ads popped up on a user's friends' pages after the user clicked to "like" a firm's advert.
The lawsuit was brought by five members of Facebook who said the ads violated Facebook members' rights to control the use of their activity on the site.
