Meta will soon face another high-stakes trial in US
Meta will face a federal trial starting this week over allegations that it made Instagram and Facebook addictive for children, with potential penalties reaching up to $1.4 trillion. The trial, initiated by the attorneys general of California, Colorado, Kentucky, and New Jersey, follows two previous convictions and nearly $1 billion in damages against the company. Jury selection will begin Wednesday in Oakland, with opening statements expected next week and a verdict anticipated by early October.
