👉Five additional Ontario school boards and two private schools have joined a lawsuit against major social media companies, alleging their platforms negatively impact students' thinking, behavior, and learning. The lawsuit, initially filed by several public and Catholic school boards in March, argues that social media's addictive nature disrupts learning and harms mental health, forcing schools to allocate significant resources to address these issues. The plaintiffs, now including Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board, York Catholic District School Board, Trillium Lakeland District School Board, Ottawa Catholic District School Board, District School Board of Niagara, and two private schools, seek $4.5 billion in damages from Meta, Snap, and ByteDance.✅ .

👉Major Ontario school boards, including Toronto, Peel, and Ottawa-Carleton, along with Toronto's Catholic board, are collectively suing Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok for $4.5 billion. Premier Doug Ford opposes the move, denouncing it as 'nonsense.' The boards allege that these platforms have negatively impacted students, contributing to an attention, learning, and mental health crisis. The coalition, named Schools for Social Media Change, claims the apps promote cyberbullying, hate speech, and misinformation, and are designed to deliver harmful content. They argue that students are exposed to content related to suicide, drugs, and sexual activity without consent.✅ .
