Meta fined $567M over children
A court in New Mexico has fined Meta $567 million for failing to protect children from the dangers of social media, especially from fraudsters and harmful content. This ruling comes after a jury in March found that Meta violated unfair practices laws by misleading users about the safety levels of its platforms for children. Approximately 75% of the fine will be allocated to addressing mental health issues among children, with the company committed to updating its procedures twice a year to ensure compliance. Meta reaffirmed its intention to defend its track record in protecting teenagers.
