US court denies social media immunity in teen case

An American appeals court has allowed legal actions to proceed against Meta, Google, TikTok, and Snapchat, accusing them of designing products that attract young people and cause addiction, which has contributed to the deterioration of their mental health and an increase in disorders such as depression and anxiety. The court rejected the companies' request to halt the lawsuits and affirmed that Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act does not grant absolute immunity from legal liability. Additionally, the court dismissed a case against Meta related to the illegal collection and exploitation of data from children. The companies face numerous similar lawsuits and have been subjected to fines reaching hundreds of millions of dollars, reflecting a judicial escalation regarding their responsibility for the impact of their products on adolescent health.
