A massive lawsuit is unfolding against Meta, with multiple state attorneys general accusing the company of intentionally designing social media platforms to be addictive and harmful to teens — despite internal evidence showing they knew the risks. Plaintiffs are demanding up to $1.4 trillion in penalties, arguing Meta’s engagement-driven tactics have caused widespread mental health damage. Meta fiercely denies the claims, calling them exaggerated and based on selective data, while a nonprofit founded by grieving families plans a high-profile courthouse protest. This pivotal legal battle could reshape how tech companies are regulated — forcing a reckoning over whether product design can be held accountable for real-world harm.
