Meta just agreed to an $18 billion settlement, setting strict new rules for kids using Facebook and Instagram — including daily time limits, nighttime locks, silenced notifications during school hours, and algorithm-free feeds. Critics hail it as a landmark win, comparing it to tobacco lawsuits, while platforms like TikTok are being pressured to follow suit. Funds will support youth mental health and education, especially in states like New York, as AI-driven social media continues to evolve.
