Show Notes

A New Mexico jury is deliberating in a groundbreaking trial against Meta, accused of harming children through its platforms. Prosecutors argue Metas apps contribute to excessive use and expose teens to harmful content, citing evidence of algorithms recommending sensational material and failing to enforce the thirteen-year-old minimum age limit. Metas lawyers counter that the company employs advanced tools and personnel to keep apps safe, stressing that no system catches everything and risks are clearly disclosed. The state seeks billions in penalties, and a second trial phase will decide if Meta created a public nuisance. This case could reshape tech accountability, with similar lawsuits pending.
