Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta built its apps to be addictive for kids and then lied to the public about health risks so it could rake in massive profits, a California prosecutor said as a historic federal trial kicked off Tuesday. A coalition of 29 state attorneys general are trying to force unprecedented changes to how Facebook and Instagram operate as part of the landmark case in Oakland, Calif. The trial could upend Meta’s business model and result in up to $1.
