Mealey's Cyber Tech & E-Commerce

A split Washington Supreme Court affirmed a ruling against Meta Platforms Inc. in a state suit over alleged violations of the Fair Campaign Practices Act. The court said the law serves Washington’s interest in election transparency and is not unduly burdensome. In a separate California case, a judge denied posttrial motions by YouTube LLC and Meta after a jury awarded $6 million in damages over claims the platforms failed to warn of addiction risks. The judge found Section 230 did not bar the claims.
