Meta settles social media addiction

The trial had been set as a test case for 1200 other school districts making similar claims.

1. Frame 1Meta settled Breathitt County, Kentucky's social-media addiction lawsuit before an Oakland federal trial.
2. Frame 2The rural school district said addictive platforms drove student mental-health costs.
3. Frame 3The case was the bellwether for about 1,200 similar U.S. school-district lawsuits.
4. Frame 4TikTok, Snap and YouTube had already settled with the same Kentucky district.
5. Frame 5Terms were undisclosed; the district had sought more than $60 million.
6. Frame 6Remaining districts still press the wider question: who pays for youth online harms?
