Meta Pays Billions to Protect Kids Online | Colorado Springs News
Description
Meta’s paying $17 billion nationwide to overhaul its platforms for kids—Colorado alone gets $615 million over nine years. New rules include a 2-hour daily time cap, 15-minute “productive pauses,” no access from midnight to 6 AM, and silenced notifications during school hours. Designed to combat mental health harm from social media pressure, the settlement also mandates age verification, anti-bullying tools, and limits on beauty filters and like counts—all monitored by an independent auditor to ensure real change.
