Meta updates policies for minors
A court in New Mexico has ruled that Meta must pay $567 million to establish a fund to address the psychological and social damages caused to minors due to their use of the platforms. Additionally, the company faces restrictions on teen accounts on Facebook and Instagram for five years. The judge confirmed that the company's practices have contributed to worsening the mental health crisis among teenagers and have exposed them to the risk of sexual exploitation. Restrictions will also be imposed on children's usage of the platforms, limiting their engagement to a maximum of 90 hours per month and restricting interactions between adults and children via Meta's applications. A portion of the funds will be allocated to psychological treatment and prevention efforts, along with improvements to moderation tools and bans on inappropriate interactions. Meta has announced its intention to appeal the ruling.
