Judge Peter Krupp emphasized that Section 230 does not protect defendants from claims based on their own speech, highlighting the focus on Meta's actions regarding user safety.
The judge pointed out Meta's 'ineffective' age-verification system, which should prevent users under 13 from accessing their platforms, questioning their commitment to safety.
The lawsuit alleges that Meta has 'recklessly and/or deliberately' avoided removing underage accounts, suggesting a prioritization of user numbers over the safety of young users.
Krupp's ruling insists that the case revolves not just around user content but critically on Meta's responsibility and actions towards protecting vulnerable demographics.
