Show Notes

Iowas Attorney General Brenna Bird has filed a lawsuit against Meta, alleging that Instagram and Facebook violate state consumer protection laws. The lawsuit claims that the platforms market themselves as kid-friendly but are riddled with harmful content, and that Meta uses addictive features to keep users, particularly teens, scrolling indefinitely. This comes as part of a broader push by states to hold Big Tech accountable for mental health risks and unregulated content exposure. Meta has yet to respond to the lawsuit.
