A group of 33 states including California, New York, Arizona and Indiana are suing Meta Platforms Inc. for harming young people’s mental health and contributing the youth mental health crisis by knowingly designing features on Instagram and Facebook that addict children to the platforms.
Can someone explain to me why do they spy on children ? like I get adults ( they can buy ), but children !!!
You mean current and future products/advertising targets?
It’s simple. It’s so they can get them into that content pipeline early, that way they keep their eyeballs on the ads as long as possible.
Have you never seen toy and cereal commercials?

No morals, no empathy, profit is all.
It’s the closest you come to actual evil in the corporate world. You harm people without a care in the world.
Sometimes I think this existence is about resilience to evil. To see who will fall for it, and who will not.
So you think it’s out of malice? there is a decision to harvest kids data and it’s not a happy accident for these corporations, like they built these tracking systems for adults and if kids get into the mix, leave it unfixed because we might as well benefit from it
