💨 Abstract
A jury in the US ruled that Instagram and YouTube were designed to be addictive to young users, potentially shaping the future of social media regulation. The case, filed against Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and Google (YouTube), argued that features like infinite scrolling and notifications lead to compulsive use. The plaintiffs claimed these platforms caused mental health issues. The verdict resulted in fines for Meta and YouTube, with both companies planning to appeal.
