Earlier this year, New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez secured a landmark $375 million judgment against Meta in a significant child safety lawsuit. Now, both parties are heading back to a Santa Fe courthouse for a three-week trial focusing on requested changes to Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The proposed measures include implementing age verification for New Mexico users, restricting end-to-end encryption for users under 18, and limiting their use of the platforms to 90 minutes daily. These developments could have far-reaching impacts not only for Meta but for the wider social media landscape as well.
