Minor drops lawsuit against Meta over social media mental health claims
A minor identified only as 'R.K.C.' has dropped his lawsuit against Meta, just days before the case was set to go to trial in California. The plaintiff had sued multiple social media companies, including YouTube, Meta, and Snap, alleging that his use of their platforms caused mental health problems. The dismissal specifically applies to Meta, while the status of claims against other companies remains unclear. The case highlights ongoing legal battles over social media's impact on youth mental health.
