Devin Stone aka LegalEagle recently posted a YouTube video titled “’I’m Suing Meta, TikTok, Snap”. He is taking part in furthering a moral panic with indissoluble homophobic roots that is currently being used to obliterate our rights.
Mass surveillance and censorship laws DO NOT harm Big Tech.
Meta is currently using the “Social Media Addiction” Trial verdict to destroy anonymous internet access for everyone.
This lawsuit is backed by the Heritage Foundation and Morality in Media. Far-right Christian fundamentalist hate groups!!I was actually in the room for the “Social Media Addiction” lawsuit.
Kaley’s mom made her life a living hell. Her mom was weighing her every day, telling her she’s fat. Her mom physically abused her. Her father physically abused and abandoned her.
Yet, her unhappiness is solely blamed on her making fan edits on Instagram and Instagram messaging the few friends she had.
When you put that liability on Instagram, you abdicate everyone else’s responsibility. They don’t have to prosecute these child abuse cases because they can just blame it on Instagram!!Ironically, this girl currently works in social media marketing. And her abusive mom has now been rewarded with millions of dollars.
And it’s so harmful because they’re continually telling children that social media is causing their problems. And then when these kids quit social media and they become even more isolated and depressed, they blame themselves.
The whole point of this lawsuit is to punch holes in Section 230.

This whole thing is just a complete racket. It’s horrible. It’s rewarding abusive parents and scam lawyers who want to push this moral panic and set a legal precedent that is being used to obliterate our rights.
