WHAT HAPPENED
On Thursday a New Mexico judge ordered Meta to pay more than $567 million to the state over claims that the social media giant created a “public nuisance” and harmed children. The decision follows an earlier March ruling that required Meta to pay $375 million after a jury found the company liable for making children vulnerable to predators on its platforms.
The new order cites New Mexico’s assertion that Meta failed to protect minors, causing significant mental‑health harms. Meta said it disagrees with the ruling and will appeal. According to the News – South China Morning Post, the judge’s judgment builds on the March jury verdict. France 24, the Guardian and BBC News also report the $567 million figure and confirm the case’s focus on child safety.
This is the largest child‑safety settlement against a social‑media company and highlights increasing legal pressure on platforms to safeguard minors.
