About this episode
In this episode, we dive into the landmark case of KGM vs. Meta, where a 21-year-old plaintiff sued the tech giant for allegedly addicting her as a child and causing depression and suicidal thoughts. The jury delivered a verdict, finding Meta 70% responsible for the harm. We explore the case's significance, the tech industry's liability, and the potential implications for social media platforms. We also discuss the internal documents that revealed Facebook's knowledge of the harm caused by their features and the company's decision to prioritize profits over kids' safety.
