On Monday, we talked about Meta’s landmark $17 billion settlement that includes $223 million going to Arizona.
I asked what you all thought of it, and here’s what you said:
💬 “Where does the money go from this settlement? Are [Meta]/Facebook users in Arizona getting checks from this?” — Katharine B.
Editor’s note: States get to decide how to allocate the money they receive in the settlement. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has said she wants the bulk of Arizona’s portion to go toward mental health counseling in public schools.
💬 “Hoping Attorney General Mayes earmarks some of that settlement money for mental health services for those under 18.” — Julie C.
💬 “I think all the social platform should be paying even more. Those companies should be run out of business entirely. They serve NO useful purpose and they deliberately damaged children for profit. How is this any different than Epstein and his customers?” — Les R.
💬 “Mark Zuckerberg should get sued and my biggest concern is all the pornography on Facebook. No one is monitoring any of it I’ve also come across child porn. I’m to the point of reporting to the local authorities and then to the FBI. No one is addressing that part of Facebook. If our children are on Facebook then they’re also accessing porn.” — Holly Z.
Keep sending in your comments—we’ll post them to the website later today!
