Description
New Mexico jury holds Meta accountable in landmark case, finding the company violated the states Unfair Practices Act. The verdict comes after a six-week trial, with Meta facing a penalty of five thousand dollars per violation for harming young users. Former Meta employees testified about the platforms ability to match users with shared interests, including harmful ones. Meta plans to appeal the ruling, while a similar trial in Los Angeles is ongoing. New Mexicos case enters a second phase, a judge-only trial on public nuisance claims that could bring bigger penalties and force changes like age verification for minors.
