Nuevo México sentencia a Meta a pagar 375 millones de dólares por no proteger a menores en sus redes sociales
SANTA FE, NM.- En un fallo histórico, un jurado civil de Nuevo México declara culpable a Meta Platforms (dueña de Facebook, Instagram y WhatsApp) de violar la Ley de Prácticas Comerciales Desleales del estado al priorizar sus beneficios económicos sobre la seguridad de los menores.
El jurado determinó que Meta ocultó información sobre los riesgos que sus plataformas representan para niños y adolescentes, facilitó el contacto de depredadores sexuales con menores y dañó su salud mental.
Agencias noticiosas informan que tras siete semanas de juicio y solo un día de deliberación, se ordenó a la empresa pagar 375 millones de dólares en sanciones civiles, lo que equivale a 5,000 dólares por cada una de las miles de violaciones comprobadas.
El millonario castigo para Meta que marca un precedente contra las Big Tech en Estados Unidos
La fiscalía estatal había solicitado originalmente más de 2,000 millones de dólares, argumentando que más de 207,000 menores accedían mensualmente a las plataformas de Meta, quedando expuestos a contenidos dañinos y explotación.
A pesar de que la cifra final es menor a la petición inicial, este veredicto se registra como la primera sentencia en juicio contra una gran plataforma digital por estos motivos en los Estados Unidos.

¿Qué sigue para Meta, TikTok y YouTube tras este veredicto?
Aunque Meta aún tiene la posibilidad de apelar el fallo, este veredicto se considera un precedente fundamental para el sector tecnológico.
Actualmente, decenas de estados y familias mantienen demandas similares pendientes contra gigantes como Meta, TikTok, YouTube y Snapchat, cuestionando el impacto de las redes sociales en la salud mental y la seguridad de los menores de edad.
