Show Notes
A significant court ruling holds Meta and Google accountable for a teenagers mental health decline due to addictive features on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube. This verdict sets a precedent for thousands of similar lawsuits, with lawyers focusing on how these apps hook young users. The global response includes Australias social media ban for under-sixteens, and France and the EU pushing for age verification and overuse feature curbs. This signals a potential redesign of social media, prioritizing young minds over endless engagement.
