Zuckerberg Takes the Stand in Landmark Teen-Safety Trial Over Instagram
Mark Zuckerberg testified in a Los Angeles court as a landmark trial probes Meta's handling of under-13 users and whether Instagram’s design aims to boost engagement, amid allegations the platform harms teens. Meta says under-13 access is prohibited and that time spent on the app is a performance proxy rather than a goal, while prosecutors seek accountability for potential addictive effects.
