Iowa's state attorney general has filed a lawsuit against Meta Platforms Inc., claiming Instagram misrepresents itself as a safe platform for teenagers.

Attorney General Brenna Bird asserts that Instagram is designed to be addictive, negatively impacting children's mental health and safety. The lawsuit highlights the presence of inappropriate content, including self-harm and eating disorders, particularly affecting young women.
