"The state argued that only this kind of sweeping plan could resolve the safety and public health issues Meta poses to New Mexico minors. The plan 'recognizes the scope of the public nuisance that Meta has caused,' Ackerman said."
"Meta, on the other hand, said the AG's asks are so far-fetched and infeasible that it could have no choice but to leave the state entirely if Judge Bryan Biedscheid forced it to comply with the plan."
"Biedscheid indicated he also has some reservations. While he wants to address any identified harms, he said, he is 'not the easiest sell on an idea where I would become a one person legislature, judge, and executive branch enforcer of administrative code provision.'"
New Mexico's attorney general is pursuing a $3.7 billion abatement plan against Meta following a $375 million jury verdict. The plan includes funding for mental health, law enforcement, and educational programs. Additional requests involve implementing age verification, achieving a 99 percent detection rate for child sexual abuse material, and restricting notifications to teens during late-night and school hours. The state argues these measures are necessary to mitigate the public nuisance caused by Meta. However, Meta claims the demands are unrealistic and could force its exit from the state.
