Meta has lobbied the U.S. Congress for legal immunity from child-harm claims tied to social media products such as Instagram, as it faces thousands of lawsuits from young users and their families, according to a source familiar with the matter and proposed legislative language reviewed by Reuters. If adopted by lawmakers and passed into law as part of the Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) under consideration in the U.S. Senate, such a provision could undermine thousands of lawsuits against Meta and other online platforms over harms to children. Meta and Google’s YouTube face a combined $6 million in damages after they lost the first case at trial early this year. While legislators have given no indication of adopting the language, the lobbying effort shows the kind of legal protections Meta is seeking amid the biggest attempt to regulate online platforms in the U.S. since the 1990s.

You don’t get it. Their racism is even in the little things: asking for someone’s ascendency, the obssession with “race” classification (there’s only ine race: the human race), the segregation that led to certain ethnic “accents” and so on. All of this shit helps to build up a Geoge Floyd.
This. That Black and Negro are considered offensive is baffling in comparison to White and Brown (this one isn’t in the same status than White though so it might be used offensively by some racist mouth shitter).
