This second phase also relates to Meta’s failure to protect teens, with the ruling increasing the total financial impact to a combined $942 million for the business. In addition, Judge Biedscheid also outlined a multi-step approach that Meta will be required to implement in order to limit the negative impacts of social media on teens moving forward. Though it all comes down to effective detection, and how good Meta’s systems are at determining each user’s age, in order to actually stop teens from evading these parameters. But if these systems can be enacted, then the guidelines proposed here could be helpful, and could limit harmful usage habits among teens.
