Episode Details

Meta just got hit with a $567 million court order in New Mexico to fund teen mental health and overhaul its platforms for young users, after a judge called their social media apps a public nuisance harming kids. This follows a March verdict finding Meta guilty of deceptive practices and ordering $375 million in damages. The new ruling mandates strict teen safety measures — including time limits, reduced notifications, blocked adult-minor contact, and AI safeguards — all enforceable for five years. Meta plans to appeal, insisting it’s committed to protecting teens, while the state attorney general celebrates it as a landmark victory and model for other jurisdictions grappling with social media’s impact on youth.
