Meta Reaches $18 Billion Settlement Over Child Safety Concerns
Meta has agreed to a settlement of $18 billion to address concerns regarding child safety and its impact on minors' mental health. The settlement aims to resolve allegations related to the company's social media platforms, including Instagram and Facebook.
