Meta ignored child safety on Instagram, claims former executive in court
Arturo Bejar, a former engineering director at Meta, testified that the company adopted a "don't ask, don't tell" approach regarding children using Instagram. According to Bejar, Meta consistently placed user engagement ahead of the mental health of young people, noting that if you distance yourself from the product, the company won't generate revenue. Bejar provided this testimony during a major US trial focused on allegations that Meta intentionally engineered its platforms to create addiction among younger users.
