Facebook Inc won a ruling that halved a jury’s US$500mil (RM2.01bil) verdict against its Oculus unit for using computer code in its virtual reality headset that was taken from another company. 

US District Judge Ed Kinkeade in Dallas also on June 27 rejected ZeniMax Media Inc’s request that he ban sales of Oculus headsets.
