"Thirty-three states have banded together to sue Meta, alleging that the company was exploiting its young users on Instagram and Facebook for profit, including by collecting data from children without parental consent."
The damages could be as high as $1.4 trillion, nearly the same as Meta's market capitalization at just above $1.5 trillion.

The case really heavily emphasizes YOUNG Facebook users. I'm worried that that means they'll have to meet a higher bar to prove Facebook was _specifically targeting_ young users. It so clearly causes harm to users of ALL ages it seems like that would've been easier to go after.
Anyway, I am not a lawyer, so what do I know? I hope they crush them into the fucking Earth.

@stefan I have to wonder when people are going to start asking where the parents are that are supposed to be parenting their kids.

Imagine a case like this going on but governments all over the damn globe insist on giving them even more personal data for age verification.

@stefan it'll settle out of court for $100 million in "fines" and that'll be that.

@mainframed767 Maybe. I'm definitely hoping that more will come out of this.

Obviously not going to get my hopes up that we could see Meta completely wiped, but it will definitely be interesting to follow this case along.
@stefan
Re interesting to follow this case"the company was exploiting its young users on #Instagram and #Facebook for profit..."
I bet #META will REVERSE and say, but... "Corporations are NOT people, companies can't hurt kids, we are buildings and desks and shit"
#TomHartmann has a new book out,
"Who Killed the American Dream? The Greatest Political Crime Ever Told" where he shows how they got corp are people

@stefan This is precisely why I left Meta - their attitude toward teen and child privacy is not just bad, it should be considered criminal.

Indeed we will. You should be prepared to be fully disappointed, however. They can buy a LOT of lawyers.

@stefan 1.4T is a crazy large number so hopes are not high but I do find the idea of Meta getting single-handedly wiped out by a single exploitation lawsuit a comforting and hilarious dream
