Meta misled users about its products’ safety, jury decides: Lawsuit

A New Mexico jury has found Meta Platforms Inc. liable for deliberately misleading users about product safety and engaging in unethical trade practices, imposing a $375 million penalty. This historic verdict is the first of its kind, emerging from a state investigation that used decoy accounts to expose potential child exploitation on Meta's platforms. The ruling could set a precedent for numerous other lawsuits against social media companies.
