Meta discusses potential settlement of teen safety lawsuits

Meta says states have discussed resolving lawsuits over alleged harms to teenagers from social media platforms.
The talks could potentially lead to a broader settlement rather than years of separate state-by-state litigation.
For $META, a comprehensive resolution could reduce a long-running source of legal uncertainty, although the financial terms and any changes to its platforms would ultimately determine the impact.
Youth safety remains one of the biggest regulatory and legal risks facing the social media industry.
