Prince Harry is praising a federal judge’s decision ordering Meta to pay a fine of $567 million for failing to warn the public about the dangers its platforms pose to children. “For years we’ve argued that big tech’s harm to children was a choice, not some inevitable side effect,” Prince Harry says in a statement shared with Town & Country. This is what happens when the law finally catches up to decisions made in boardrooms, product meetings, and algorithm reviews — decisions that put social media engagement ahead of safety. There’s no word on why today’s statement was only from Prince Harry and not Meghan as well. In 2024, they launched the Parents Network through their Archewell Foundation, a support network for parents whose children have been impacted by online, social media harm.
