Social media giant Meta has asked a United States judge to throw out a verdict that found the company liable for a woman’s depression and addiction, according to court filings and media reports.
In March, a jury found that Meta and Google, the parent company of YouTube, had been negligent in how they designed their platforms and failed to warn their users of the dangers of using them. The jury decided the companies owed the 20-year-old plaintiff identified as KGM, $6 million (€5.1 million).
