The San Mateo County Board of Education is suing Facebook’s parent company, Meta, claiming that CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s company has contributed to the mental health crisis among youths by intentionally designing its social media platform to be manipulative and addictive.
The Board of Education added Meta to a complaint it filed on March 13 in the U.S. District Court in San Francisco against a string of other social media giants, including Google, TikTok owner Bytedance, and Snap Inc.
