In Massachusetts, Section 230 Does Not Immunize Meta From Claims That Instagram’s Design Features Injure Children

Massachusetts' highest court has ruled that Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act does not shield Meta from liability claims alleging that Instagram's design features are intentionally addictive to children. The decision narrows the scope of Section 230 immunity by distinguishing between liability for third-party content versus liability for platform design choices that contribute to harm, potentially opening the door for similar lawsuits against social media companies nationwide.
