Five Facebook users filed a civil lawsuit Monday alleging that the social networking site is violating California’s privacy laws and misleading members about how their personal information is used. The lawsuit, filed in Orange County Superior Court, asks for damages and attorney’s fees and includes a request for a jury trial. Facebook spokesperson Barry Schnitt declined to comment on the specifics of the lawsuit. “We see no merit to this suit and we plan to fight it,” he said in an emailed statement.
