Meta’s social media platforms are under fire in court for allegedly designing addictive features that harm teen mental health, despite rolling out safety tools like restricted messaging, content warnings, and “Take a Break” prompts — but critics argue these measures are too little, too late, especially since internal testimony suggests the company knew how to better identify underage users. Meta counters by claiming no conclusive science links social media to teen mental health crises and insists profits weren’t prioritized over safety. With a $500 million New Mexico verdict already stacking up to nearly a billion dollars in total penalties, this federal trial could redefine how Instagram and Facebook operate for young users.
