Judge Rules Zuckerberg Not Liable for Children's Harm on Meta Platforms

A federal judge ruled that Mark Zuckerberg is not personally liable in over two dozen lawsuits alleging that Facebook and Instagram are addictive to children and pose health risks. The plaintiffs, including parents and school districts, claim Meta concealed these risks. However, the judge found insufficient evidence to hold Zuckerberg personally accountable. The lawsuits against Meta continue, with plaintiffs seeking to prove that the company prioritized profits over children's safety. This ruling comes amid global scrutiny of social media's impact on youth.
