In a landmark decision, a jury in New Mexico has ordered social media giant Meta to pay $375 million for allegedly enabling child exploitation and failing to protect children on its platforms. The jury found that Meta violated state laws regarding child safety, ruling that the company knowingly misled users about the safety of its products and committed thousands of violations that put children at risk. This ruling is viewed as a significant setback for Meta and could have broader implications for how social media companies handle child safety issues moving forward.
