Mental health experts reportedly warned Meta about risks, raising concerns amid lawsuits over social media’s impact on youth well-being
Dr. Karen Sutherland says commentators who previously worked at Meta have claimed that mental health experts raised concerns directly with company executives, allegedly warning that something was seriously wrong.
The claims could become significant as lawsuits examine whether social media platforms contributed to youth mental health problems and whether companies knew about the risks.
The evidence presented in court could determine whether platforms are forced to change how they operate.
