Los Angeles jury finds tech giants liable in landmark social media safety trial

In a historic verdict for digital accountability, a Los Angeles Superior Court jury has found Meta and YouTube liable for designing addictive features that harm children.

The first-of-its-kind ruling awarded $6 million in damages to a 20-year-old plaintiff, focusing on social media safety and the negligent engineering of "infinite scrolls" and autoplay. While tech companies are expected to appeal, the decision builds on research from the Center for Humane Technology and marks the first time a jury has held platforms responsible for their design choices.

This victory provides a major blueprint for protecting the mental health of the next generation.


Antihero Project 🌱

The world doesn’t need another hustle hero.

Here's my hunch: Right now, your biggest roadblock isn't a lack of passion, hard work, or intelligence. It's burnout.

You care deeply about the world and want to make a real difference, but you're carrying the weight of it on your shoulders instead.

You constantly say β€œyes” to projects you don’t have capacity for, you run on empty, and you are held back by the nagging belief that you must sacrifice your well-being to do impactful work and have a fulfilling life.

You long to make a meaningful contribution, but you are exhausted trying to figure out how to do it and keep your sanity, especially when it feels like the world is falling apart around you.

You're not just tired. You feel stuck, jaded, overwhelmed, and lost. Maybe you're even losing hope in this world.

I promise you: You can do good in the world and feel good in the process.

Love,
Peter
