A New Mexico judge ordered the social media giant to pay $567 million into a fund meant to remedy harms caused by Facebook and Instagram. That comes on top of $375 million in civil penalties a jury previously imposed in the same case, bringing Meta’s total legal bill to $942 million. In Thursday’s ruling, Judge Bryan Biedscheid concluded that Meta had caused and substantially contributed to a “public nuisance” in New Mexico. The judge also ordered Meta to adopt new safeguards for young Facebook and Instagram users in the state. During the first three months of 2026, the company generated $56 billion in revenue, $55 billion coming from advertising alone.
