New Episode🔥The Cybercrime Junkies show dives into the serious allegations against Meta, including internal emails where employees allegedly referred to themselves as "drug pushers." This episode focuses on the ongoing social media trial, bringing to light evidence that Meta may have been aware of the harms its platforms cause, especially concerning child mental health. We discuss the disturbing statistic of 13% of youth facing solicitation on Instagram weekly and the overall impact on online safety.
🚨 SHOCKING FACTS FROM META'S INTERNAL RESEARCH:
→ 13% of kids aged 13-15 get sexually solicited on Instagram EVERY WEEK
→ 1 in 3 teen girls say Instagram makes body image worse
→ 4 million children under 13 were using Instagram (violating Meta's own policy)
→ Meta TESTED hiding "Likes" - it reduced harm to teens but they killed it because it would cut ad revenue by 1%
📧 ACTUAL INTERNAL EMAILS:
"IG is a drug. We're basically pushers. We are causing Reward Deficit Disorder."
"If these results leak, won't we look like tobacco companies that knew cigarettes killed people?"
⚖️ MARK ZUCKERBERG LIED UNDER OATH?:
He testified "the existing body of scientific work has not shown a causal link between social media and worse mental health."
Meta's own internal studies proved causation. Their researchers wrote: "The study shows causal impact."
📊 ALL THE EVIDENCE IS PUBLIC:
Researchers at NYU compiled all 31 leaked internal studies at metasinternalresearch.org
