9th Circuit Rejects Meta's Section 230 Immunity, Trial Set for August

व्यवसाय समाज प्रौद्योगिकी

The U. S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Section 230 does not provide immunity for Meta, allowing a $1.

4 trillion state-attorney-general lawsuit to go to trial in August. The panel had earlier rejected Section 230 defenses raised by Meta, Google, TikTok and other platforms, permitting more than 3,000 federal lawsuits alleging their services are designed to be addictive to young users to proceed. Previously, a federal judge in Santa Fe County, New Mexico, added a $567 million penalty to Meta’s earlier $375 million judgment and ordered the company to fund treatment and prevention programs for affected youth, describing the design of Facebook and Instagram as a public nuisance contributing to a youth mental-health crisis.
