'Profits won.' The child safety trial against Meta kicks off in federal court

The trial against Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, has begun as four states accuse the company of prioritizing profits over child safety. They claim Meta knowingly designed addictive features that exploit children's vulnerabilities. This case is significant as it could set a precedent for holding tech giants accountable for the impact of their products on young users. The outcome could influence future regulations and the way social media platforms are scrutinized for their responsibilities to younger audiences.
