A bipartisan coalition of 29 state attorneys general has launched a massive federal trial against Meta, the parent company of Instagram and Facebook, accusing the social media giant of intentionally designing addictive products that endanger young users. The sweeping lawsuit alleges that features like infinite scrolling, algorithmic push notifications, and engagement-driven metrics were deliberately engineered to exploit adolescent vulnerabilities, foster compulsive use, and hide internal data regarding the mental health toll on teens. In this episode, we break down the explosive opening statements, internal corporate documents, and whistleblower testimonies emerging from the federal trial in Oakland, California.
