A New Mexico jury ordered Meta to pay 375 million dollars for violating consumer laws by failing to protect children from sexual predators and mental health harms.The verdict follows a seven-week trial led by Raúl Torrez after an undercover investigation revealed that Facebook and Instagram algorithms facilitated the exploitation of minors.Jurors determined that the company prioritized corporate profits over user safety while deliberately misleading the public about the inherent dangers of its social media platforms.While the tech giant plans to appeal the decision, a future phase of the proceedings will assess whether the firm created a public nuisance requiring further remediation funds.
