Your Child Wasn’t Weak.
The App Was Designed to Addict Them.

Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, Snapchat, and YouTube knew their platforms were harming children — and chose profit over your family’s safety. A jury just awarded $6 million to the first plaintiff. If your child was harmed, you may have a case.

What the Record Shows

This is not about screen time rules or parenting choices. The evidence in this litigation reveals a deliberate corporate strategy — and it has nothing to do with what you did or didn’t do as a parent.

What the Evidence Shows

Instagram’s internal researchers found the app caused body image issues in teenage girls — and leadership suppressed those findings
Platforms used intermittent variable reward mechanics — the same technique used in slot machines — to keep children compulsively scrolling
Age verification was deliberately ineffective, allowing underage children easy access despite the companies’ knowledge of the harm
Social comparison features were designed to trigger status anxiety in developing adolescent brains
The companies’ own data showed the more time children spent on the platforms, the worse their mental health outcomes became — and they optimized for more time anyway

“Children versus Big Tech is just not a fair fight.”

— U.S. Surgeon General
