NYC’s lunatic lawsuit against social media could drive millions of tax dollars away
Opinion by Steve Cuozzo • 14h
In the realm of dangerously misplaced urban priorities, nothing compares with the lawsuit the Adams administration filed last week against five social-media sites — Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat and TikTok — claiming they cost the city $100 million to treat mental-health issues supposedly caused by young people’s “addictions” to their content.
The city blames the platforms for such youth-afflicting maladies as depression and suicidal “ideation.”
But if there’s a death wish in all this, it is the city’s.
