State AGs Fight Your Kid's Facebook Addiction
Listen now
Description
This week saw 41 U.S. states and the District of Columbia launch an all-out legal blitz against Meta, alleging that the tech giant is using addictive features to get kids hooked onto Facebook and Instagram. This week on Pro Say, the hosts break down the particulars of the suit, and how it fits into the broader push for more child-oriented safeguards on social media. Also this week, a Google executive wins a $1.2 million gender discrimination verdict, but can’t convince the jury she was illegally paid less than her male counterparts, and it’s the end of an era as the LSAT eliminates the “logic games” portion of the exam to settle a years-old lawsuit. Finally, the hosts unpack the implications of an octogenarian judge who claims he’s “too old” to have heard of 74-year-old conservative rocker Ted Nugent.
