A New Mexico court has slapped Meta with a $567 million penalty for harming youth mental health on Instagram and Facebook, ordering $420 million for youth treatment and the rest for prevention programs over five years. The ruling forces Meta to overhaul platform safety—adding mandatory educational banners, AI-powered age estimation, and strict age verification protocols for users under 13. Schools will be able to report suspected underage users, and all data on minors must be deleted. Meta must submit biannual progress reports, with changes subject to state oversight—potentially reshaping how billions use these platforms.
