According to NBC News, Snap confidentially settled a case this week involving two teenagers who claimed the platform's technology caused severe psychological distress. Meta, TikTok, and YouTube previously settled in the same suit.
Separately, Google faced a new lawsuit this week from parents who alleged their child suffered a psychological crisis after using the Gemini AI chatbot in Google Classroom.
