Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta is threatening a total shutdown of Facebook and Instagram in New Mexico if a state judge orders the company to adopt new safety features, according to a court filing Thursday. The threat from Meta comes just weeks after a New Mexico jury slapped the company with $375 million in civil penalties and ruled that the company failed to protect kids from sexual predators on its apps. A state judge will decide what changes Meta must make to fix the problem at the second phase of the trial, which begins on May 4.
