This could be the biggest tech trial in American history. A landmark federal court case opened Tuesday in Oakland, California, with 29 state attorneys general standing unified against Meta, the company behind Facebook and Instagram. The central allegation is damning — that Meta deliberately engineered its platforms to be addictive to children and teenagers, and that the company knew about the devastating mental health consequences while actively hiding them from parents, regulators, and the public. Prosecutors told the jury that Meta aimed to hook teens on Facebook and Instagram and lied about the health risks, drawing a direct comparison to the tobacco industry’s conduct in the 1990s — a company that knew its product was killing people and said nothing. The financial stakes are almost incomprehensible. Meta’s own lawyers have acknowledged that damages in the case could reach $1.4 trillion dollars. The states involved are seeking $200 billion. New Mexico’s Attorney General warned that the consequences for Meta could be astronomical. And the timing of the trial’s opening day carries its own pointed message — it began on the exact same day that OpenAI launched ChatGPT for Teens, a product that essentially acknowledges the tech industry has been failing young users for years. This is not just a story about one company. It is a story about what social media has done to an entire generation. So we want to know — do you think Meta should be held financially responsible for its impact on teen mental health? And do you believe the platforms you use every day are deliberately designed to be addictive?
