Meta已在美国针对其让青少年成瘾的诉讼中以24亿美元达成和解,同时无需承认过错或参加庭审1。该原诉讼曾面临1.4万亿美元的潜在罚款1。作为和解条款的一部分,Meta将对18岁以下用户调整平台设置,包括实施两小时的日常使用时间限制、设定夜间宵禁、隐藏点赞数量,以及修改极端美颜滤镜功能1。
澳大利亚的未成年人社交媒体禁令对此项和解形成了重要压力,反映出全球监管机构对科技公司的立场正在发生转变1。该禁令于去年12月生效,但实施9个月后效果有限——10至15岁儿童中仍有81%继续使用社交媒体1。其中TikTok在13至15岁用户中的使用率为25.9%,较禁令实施前仅下降1个百分点1。
澳大利亚律师事务所Shine Lawyers已宣布将与美国诉讼律师Mark Lanier合作,调查在澳大利亚针对Meta提起集体诉讼的可能性1。
Meta has agreed to a $2.4 billion settlement in the United States to resolve litigation alleging the company deliberately addicted teenagers to its platforms, without admitting wrongdoing or going to trial.1 The settlement requires Meta to adjust settings for users under 18, implementing a two-hour daily time limit, a nighttime curfew, hidden like counts, and modified beauty filters to reduce extreme appearance standards.1
Australia's recently implemented social media ban for minors has intensified scrutiny of Meta's regulatory environment globally.1 Nine months after the Australian ban took effect in December, 81 percent of children aged 10 to 15 continue using social media platforms, while TikTok usage among 13 to 15-year-olds stands at 25.9 percent, declining only marginally by one percentage point.1 Responding to these developments, Australian law firm Shine Lawyers has announced plans to investigate a potential class action lawsuit against Meta, partnering with U.S. litigation attorney Mark Lanier.1 The original U.S. case against Meta faced potential penalties reaching $1.4 trillion.1
