Meta heads to US trial as states demand $1.4 trillion over addictive apps

Meta is set to go to trial in the US following claims that it intentionally designed Facebook and Instagram to be addictive for young users. A group of attorneys general from California, Colorado, Kentucky, and New Jersey are pushing for new rules on how these platforms handle minors, while also pursuing up to $1.4 trillion in fines. This penalty figure is almost equal to Meta’s total market value, which climbed past $1.5 trillion as of Friday.
