BBC NewsMeta agrees to pay up to $17.1bn to settle social media caseThe deal has been reached during a California federal court trial over claims brought by 29 states.IANAL, but doesn’t settlement mean they don’t admit fault, they have no judgement to actually force changes, and the same case can’t be brought again, aka, they get to keep harming kids, just have to cough up some tiny slice of profit and offer some lip service to doing better? Or, to rephrase, as long as the government gets a cut, they can keep abusing?
the ultra rich are evil by default, they couldn’t get to that level of wealth by caring about humanity.
