Attorney General Hilgers Warns Parents of Social Media Harms
“Social media platforms know that the longer kids engage with their platforms, the more profitable they will be. Algorithms and notifications psychologically manipulate young users into a state of addiction to their platforms and never-ending feeds,” stated Attorney General Mike Hilgers.
“Our office is watchful for pitfalls that have arrived with this digital landscape. We have not hesitated to investigate and, when appropriate, file lawsuits to protect youth from the physical and mental health harms to children and teens fueled by the expansion and invasiveness of social media platforms,” stated Attorney General Hilgers.
