Opening arguments set in Meta’s federal child safety trial
Opening arguments are set to kick off on Tuesday in a pivotal trial for Meta Platforms in a California federal court.
Attorneys general from California, Colorado, Kentucky and New Jersey are seeking extensive financial damages plus changes to how the company operates Facebook and Instagram. Twenty-nine states sued the tech giant in 2023 over child safety and privacy — the other 25 will go to trial later. The company also faces lawsuits in state courts.
