Meta agrees landmark $18bn settlement over children’s social media use

Meta has agreed to pay as much as $18bn and introduce sweeping restrictions on how children use Facebook and Instagram as part of a landmark settlement with U.S. states over alleged harms to young users. The deal, which remains subject to judicial approval, includes an initial $12.7bn payment to fund youth online safety initiatives and will block under-18s from using the apps between midnight and 6am, switch off notifications by default during school hours, and limit daily use to two hours unless a verified parent removes the restriction. Meta will also introduce age-assurance technology and disable “like” counts by default on teenagers’ posts.
