Meta and YouTube ordered to pay $3 million to young woman in social media addiction trial
After nine days of deliberation, a Los Angeles jury found Google and Meta liable for harms stemming from the design of their social media products on Wednesday and ordered them to pay $3 million in damages to a plaintiff who said that Instagram and YouTube caused depression, body dysmorphia and suicidal thoughts.
Meta was ordered to pay 70 percent of damages and YouTube is responsible for 30 percent.
This is the first trial tackling the legal question of whether features of social media, like autoplay, infinite scroll and beauty filters can cause harm to users.
