Can someone translate this...

Into normal english for me? XD

http://www.smh.com.au/news/technolog...028183051.html

It's about Facebook getting sued by Uconnect, about how the founder of Facebook stole the idea from a roommate...

I cant understand whether it's trying to say that Facebook needs to pay up for this case...

I think this explains it

Quote:
ConnectU creators Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss claimed that they enlisted Zuckerberg to finish software code for their social-networking website while they were all students at Harvard in 2003.

Zuckerberg, a second year student at the time, took their code and their idea and launched Facebook in February of 2004 instead of holding up his end of the deal, according to ConnectU's lawsuit.

They've agreed to pay $65 million to settle the case brought by former roommates of Mark Zuckerburg.

It appears that the other two roommates enlisted Zuckerburg to help finish the code for their social-networking site, and instead of finishing the work and giving the code back, he launched Facebook.

It's a settlement agreement, so there is no appeal since both parties agreed and it was endorsed by a judge.
