1) I love to see it
2) There's not a chance in hell they'll have to pay $1.4 trillion.@bruce Maybe not the full sum. But we'll have to see.

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

"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.

@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

@stefan two things come to mind, people shouldn't be allowed to collect data on children AND they shouldn't need to have data collected in order to use said service as well.
This should also be how it works for adults as well. Data collection is something fascists love.

@stefan They need to also break up meta. Antitrust laws have been violated and the states have the authority to break up these companies

@stefan Regardless of what happens, if any damages are to be paid out, this goes up to the supreme court where it will be thrown out.

@stefan You know - sometimes I think about how Mark Zuckerberg started at Harvard. And if the Harvard admin had simply enforced the damn honor code, the entire free world might have been better off.
