Dozens of States Sue Meta Over Allegations Facebook and Instagram Are Harmful and Addictive to Kids

Dozens of states are suing Meta, alleging its platforms are addictive and harmful to kids' mental health.

The lawsuit claims Meta targets youth, monetizes their attention, and uses features to keep them online.

Legal expert says Meta's 'electronic morphine' is as bad as tobacco at hooking kids.

States want Meta to change its algorithms and business model to protect kids.

Lawsuit accuses Meta of illegally gathering kids' data without parental consent under COPPA.
