- jakeydus 8mo ago> A jury form given to jurors asks the panel to decide whether Meta or YouTube should have known their services posed a danger to children or if they were negligent in design. From the evidence I’ve seen Meta especially seems like they were not only negligent but malicious with regard to their users in their design decisions.
