Meta sued over potential 1.4 trillion dollar penalties

A group of 29 U.S. states filed a lawsuit against Meta, accusing it of designing products in a way that increases engagement among children and teenagers and prolongs their screen time. The suit also alleges that the company collected and used data from children under the age of 13 without parental consent. The states are demanding comprehensive modifications to Facebook and Instagram to enhance safety, including imposing restrictions on younger users, setting time limits, and reevaluating features like the "Like" button and infinite scrolling. Meta faces potential fines that could reach up to $1.4 trillion, although actual estimates are around $200 billion. The lawsuit focuses on Meta's concealment of the risks to children, in the context of ongoing legal actions that could lead to fundamental changes in how social media platforms are designed to protect teenagers.
