Social Media Trial - Jury's Notes Suggestive

WASHINGTON - Rezul -- The jury in the landmark media trial against Meta and YouTube has sent a number of notes which suggest that, contrary to all the discussions about addiction, the key issue in this case - which many are comparing with the lawsuits against tobacco companies for addicting children - is not whether social media is addictive or even causes addictive effects, says the lawyer whose lawsuit helped establish that nicotine was addictive.

Rather, says the man who has been called "The Law Professor Who Masterminded Litigation Against the Tobacco Industry" and "a Driving Force Behind the Lawsuits That Have Cost Tobacco Companies Billions of Dollars," the major issue with which the jury may be wresting is whether or not social media was a cause of K.G.M's very serious problems, or whether her parents were the primary cause; e.g., for producing or not effectively treating the emotional problems of their child and/or for not offering greater protection from the influences of social media.
