Plaintiff to testify in social media addiction trial against tech companies

The first plaintiff in a landmark case against major social media companies will testify about the mental health impacts she experienced as a child using platforms like Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and Snap. The 20-year-old, known as K.G.M., argues that these companies designed addictive features that exploited young users. The trial is part of a larger consolidated lawsuit from over 1,600 plaintiffs claiming the platforms knowingly caused mental health issues. Key executives from these companies have also been called to testify.
