Zuckerberg to testify in court as trial on social media addiction progresses.
As CEO of Meta, Mark Zuckerberg is expected to face tough questioning from plaintiff lawyers on Wednesday. The plaintiff is a 20-year-old woman referred to as KGM in the lawsuit. She claims that her early use of social media led to addiction to technology products and exacerbated depression and suicidal thoughts. Zuckerberg has previously testified in other cases and has been questioned by Congress on youth safety issues on the Meta platform, apologizing to family members who believe social media has caused family tragedies. However, this trial will be his first time facing questioning on similar issues in front of a jury. Some parents who have lost children are expected to be present in the limited public seating for observers. This case, along with two others, has been selected as a "bellwether" trial, meaning the outcome could affect how thousands of similar lawsuits against social media companies progress.
