SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 7 — A New Mexico judge on Thursday ordered Meta to pay more than half a billion dollars over five years over the state’s claims that the social media giant created a “public nuisance” and harmed children.
Meta was previously ordered to pay US$375 million (RM1.61 billion) in damages to New Mexico in March when a jury found the company liable for endangering children by making them vulnerable to predators on its platforms, among other harms. — AFP
