Juries Find Meta And Google Harm Children

In back-to-back verdicts this week, juries in New Mexico and Los Angeles found Meta and Google liable for harming children's mental health and designing addictive platforms. Jurors concluded that Instagram, Facebook and YouTube prioritized engagement over safety, violating state consumer-protection laws; both companies say they will appeal. The decisions could trigger thousands of similar suits and pressure firms to redesign recommendation systems.
