Meta Platforms, the parent company of WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook, plans to appeal a judge's ruling allowing a U.S. regulator to reduce the social media company's earnings from users under 18. The company also expresses concerns about foreign influence campaigns, particularly those from China, ahead of elections. The U.S. government has ceased sharing information with Meta on foreign influence operations, prompting worries about a lack of awareness of covert operations. Additionally, Meta faces challenges in preventing the promotion of harmful content, including pedophile material, on its platforms, despite its efforts to enhance child protection measures.
