Meta has agreed to pay approximately $18 billion and implement substantial design changes to Facebook and Instagram to resolve litigation brought by 29 US state attorneys general 1. The lawsuit alleged that Meta deliberately designed its platforms to addict teenagers, misled the public about potential harms, and unlawfully collected data from children under 13 1.
The settlement includes a tiered payment structure spanning multiple jurisdictions and conditions 1. Meta will distribute $11 billion across 47 US states, Washington D.C., and three US territories over a ten-year period, with an additional $1 billion payment specifically to Texas 1. The company has committed to paying a further $5.3 billion, contingent upon TikTok, YouTube, and Snap agreeing to comply with identical regulatory requirements 1. Meta's Chief Legal Officer C.J. Mahoney urged these competing platforms to join the agreement immediately 1.
The settlement mandates comprehensive platform modifications targeting adolescent user protection 1. For teenage users, Meta must implement a nighttime mode that blocks access between midnight and 6 a.m. by default, with notifications muted from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. 1. Additionally, the company must enforce a two-hour daily usage limit for teens across both Facebook and Instagram combined, excluding direct messaging and videos longer than 22 minutes 1. During school hours—Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.—notifications must remain silenced 1.
The agreement also establishes accountability mechanisms for age verification and content moderation 1. Meta must maintain age verification error rates not exceeding 10 percent for users aged 16-17 and 3 percent for those aged 13-15 1. The company is required to respond to reports of harmful content within six hours in 90 percent of documented cases 1.
