Show Notes
New Mexico jury rules against Meta, awarding $375 million in damages for endangering kids on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The verdict comes after a six-week trial, with jurors citing hundreds of thousands of instances of Meta violating state laws through deceptive practices targeting young users. The state argued Meta designed apps to keep kids engaged for longer and bigger profits, while failing to protect them from predators. Meta maintained it warns users about risks and removes harmful content. This is the first of over forty similar cases nationwide to reach a verdict, with another trial in May over public nuisance claims.
