The Article "Facebook in fresh video metrics row" from https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-45901287 was published in October 18, 2018. The first part of the article talks about how there is a lawsuit or case against facebook for misleading the people about view count on videos in Facebook's site. Facebook said that it knew about this problem after 2015 while Facebook refutes the allegations that they knew about the problem before 2015. In the second section of the article, it talk about how small companies are suing facebook for fraud and unfair business practices. Facebook essentially calls the allegations preposterous and argues against it.
I think that Facebook should be sued for misleading the people in watch duration and view count. The truth needs to be presented to the people and Facebook failed to do so. Although for a very horrible website with weak privacy measures or regulations, it is little to no surprise that Facebook would do this. Granted, Facebook is not the only company that does this. Although there is a reason that people are suing Facebook instead of other companies for now. That is fraud and terrible business practices.
