Meta just agreed to a $17 billion settlement with 47 states over allegations that its platforms exploited teens, fueling addiction and mental health issues. The deal, pending judicial approval, mandates daily time limits, midnight-to-6AM scrolling bans, reduced notifications during school/sleep hours, and optional less personalized feeds with hidden like counts. States accused Meta of knowingly designing addictive features and harvesting data from kids under 13 without consent. Additional measures include stricter underage detection, faster harmful content response (90% within 6 hours), and oversight by an independent auditor. This marks a major legal turning point as social media’s impact on youth finally faces serious consequences.
