It just it stirs everybody up.

All right, to our topic of this week's episode of the Musers the podcast, technology and stuff.
voice-verified
Technology and our changing world because we had several fascinating stories in the last week that I thought we could kick around.
voice-verified
The first of which was last week's landmark settlement between Meta and forty seven states, where Meta agreed to pay seventeen billion dollars in penalties and make major changes to its products over claims that it endangered children with addictive social media platforms.
voice-verified
And one expert from Stanford University, a law professor there, specializes in social media, said Meta would not settle unless it sees the writing on the wall and feels really exposed.
voice-verified
And Meta will initially pay about twelve billion dollars and it'll pay an additional five billion if Snap, TikTok, and YouTube also settle with the states and agree to financial penalties and product changes.
voice-verified
So people see this as a real big moment.
voice-verified
in finally
voice-verified
regulating social media and forever it's kind of been the wild west, but now there's so much evidence out there that social media is damaging well to society, but in particular teenagers.
voice-verified
most kids who are preteen or younger, they're not really on social media, at least they shouldn't be.
voice-verified
But most teenagers are.
voice-verified
And it's been proven to be incredibly damaging to them.
voice-verified
That book that I read, I did a review of it on our radio show, uh, called The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt.
voice-verified
It was eye opening and I think should be mandatory reading for every parent in America.
voice-verified
Yeah.
voice-verified
It talks about how when the iPhone in particular hit the market.
voice-verified
That that is when the numbers in anxiety, self-harm, all of these negatives associated with teenagers just skyrocketed.
voice-verified
And as the author says
voice-verified
Could be a coincidence, but it's probably not, because that's when teenagers were able to carry the internet with them in the palm of their hand 24-7.
voice-verified
And in particular, the damage that it's doing to teen boys, they become obsessed with porn and gaming.
