IT NEVER IS –
Feb. 23, 2024 – FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM CEO is arguing he can’t be held personally liable for accusations that his platforms have led to kids being addicted to social media. A ruling in the billionaire’s favor would excuse him from being held personally liable … The lawsuits claim that Zuckerberg’s actions and inaction led to social media addiction and accused him of ignoring warnings that Facebook and Instagram were unsafe for kids.
In court records viewed by Business Insider, Zuckerberg’s lawyers said, “It is a fundamental principle that individuals cannot be held personally liable for the acts or omissions of a corporation based merely on their status as corporate executives, directors, or shareholders.”
His lawyers reiterated their arguments in court on Friday, saying there is a clear difference between what Zuckerberg as an individual is personally liable for and his role as CEO, NBC Bay Area reported.
