Meta Settles Kids Safety Lawsuit for 1.2 Billion

Meta agreed to pay at least 1.2 billion dollars over ten years to 47 states, Washington D.C. and several U.S. territories. The settlement resolves claims about its social media platforms. Quartz reported the payout structure and noted it extends past the fine itself. A linked Las Vegas Sun article states the company will limit children's access to addictive Facebook and Instagram products under the terms. The piece calls the outcome a worthwhile step in the lawsuit.
