A group of 33 states including California, New York, Arizona and Indiana are suing Meta Platforms Inc. for harming young people’s mental health and contributing the youth mental health crisis by knowingly designing features on Instagram and Facebook that addict children to the platforms.
I have no idea how US lawmaking works. I thought that through precedent cases they sometimes can enforce things and reach consensus.
I really don’t think we need to keep adding more laws that no one will follow to be honest. The government acts like it cares about children, yet they budget laughable numbers to their education. We should be providing some of the best education programs in the world to our future generations. Give them the tools necessary to cut through the bullshit and make good decisions for themselves.
They want us to be morons so we rely on them to make decisions for us. It’s sickening how many people eagerly just give away their agency.
