Meta Clamps Down on Lawyer Ads Recruiting Social Media Addiction Plaintiffs

Meta is pulling ads that seek to recruit clients for social-media addiction lawsuits across its platforms after recent verdicts that could widen platform liability. Advertising from national firms linked youth mental health harms to features like infinite scrolling and filters, and Meta says it won’t allow trial lawyers to profit from its platforms while lawsuits proceed. The move underscores ongoing scrutiny of youth safety online, with Meta bracing for potential losses and a broader global push for tighter social‑media regulation.

The menopause product boom meets medical skepticism

A surge of menopause-focused products—ranging from skincare and dietary supplements to gadgets and wearable prompts—has flooded markets and social media. Doctors warn that many claims aren’t scientifically proven and advise patients to discuss evidence-based options with their clinicians, such as hormone therapy (when appropriate), nonhormonal medications, and lifestyle measures like regular exercise and a healthy diet. Dermatologists also stress sensible skincare and sun protection, noting that some beauty claims (e.g., ingestible collagen) lack solid science.

Netflix Lifts Ad-Free Price as Ad-Supported Tiers Take Center Stage

Netflix raised its standard ad-free plan to $19.99/month, highlighting a broader industry shift where ad-supported tiers are becoming more lucrative and central to pricing. As platforms push ads and improve targeting, the ad tier is growing in value while overall costs rise; observers note streaming CPMs remain higher than traditional TV, and even as Apple stays ad-free for now, the trend suggests ad-supported options will continue to gain prominence across the streaming landscape.

Court Throws Out X’s Antitrust Suit Against Advertisers Over GARM Boycott

A Texas federal judge dismissed Elon Musk’s X lawsuit accusing major advertisers (including Mars, Lego and Nestlé) of colluding via the Global Alliance for Responsible Media to boycott the platform, citing lack of jurisdiction and failure to state an antitrust claim. The suit, which linked a broader ad-industry effort to billions in ad spending withheld from X, followed years of tense advertiser relations since Musk’s 2022 takeover; X then signaled efforts to reassure brands with safety measures as it pursues an ad-revenue rebound.

Court Rules X Ad Boycott Legal; Musk’s Antitrust Case Dismissed

US District Judge Jane Boyle dismissed Elon Musk’s antitrust lawsuit alleging advertisers conspired to boycott X after he took over Twitter, ruling there was no consumer harm and that the advertisers’ actions were not an unlawful restraint. The ruling emphasizes that antitrust claims require consumer injury, labels Musk’s discovery requests a “fishing expedition,” and suggests the case may face an appeal, even as the broader dispute with advertisers persists.
