AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoYouth Safety Settlement: Meta has agreed to pay up to $18 billion over 10 years and make sweeping changes to Facebook and Instagram after a federal trial over claims the platforms were designed to be addictive and harmful to children. Under the deal, teens face a combined two-hour daily limit across the apps and a nighttime block (midnight to 6 a.m.) unless a parent opts in, plus limits on school-hour push notifications and stronger age checks and parental controls. Local Relevance for CNMI: The settlement includes the Northern Mariana Islands among the jurisdictions seeking reforms, with Meta also requiring additional safeguards for under-13 users. Money and Compliance: Payments vary by state and can rise if other platforms like TikTok, YouTube, and Snapchat adopt similar terms; the agreement still needs court approval.
