Show Notes
A Los Angeles jury has awarded a young woman $3 million in damages from Meta and YouTube, marking a landmark case on child safety. The plaintiff alleges that the platforms addictive designs, such as endless scrolls and autoplay videos, contributed to her mental health issues. This is the first time big tech companies have lost a trial focusing on platform design rather than harmful content. The verdict could pave the way for thousands of similar lawsuits and signal tougher scrutiny on how these apps target young users.
