Meta faces a crucial New Mexico trial over child safety. The state seeks billions, alleging Meta misled the public and failed to protect minors online, potentially classifying the company as a public nuisance and mandating significant product overhauls. This case, mirroring “Big Tobacco” legal battles, is a “test case” for similar nationwide lawsuits against tech giants, as plaintiffs shift focus to platform design rather than content moderation.
