Facebook and Instagram parent company Meta routinely ignores reports of underage users on its platforms and has “coveted and pursued” the underage Instagram user demographic for years, according to a newly redacted complaint accompanying a lawsuit filed in October by the attorneys general of 33 states.
The complaint is part of a wider federal lawsuit filed by the coalition of attorneys general, led by California Attorney General Rob Bonta, in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California last month.
