U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) is vowing to do whatever it takes to prevent Meta Platforms from being able to engage with "romantic or sensual" conversations with children after a Reuters report exposed an internal policy document that permitted the company’s chatbots to flirt with minors.

Meta Platforms plans to open an $800 million data center in Montgomery that will bring 100 jobs.

Due to the impact of social media on children, some Alabama school systems claim they need money for support and training, according to a new lawsuit filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles.

Meta, formerly known as Facebook, announced the expansion of a data center in Huntsville earlier this year. Now, after construction has already started, the company is changing plans.

With the midterm elections less than a month away, Facebook has been pushing voting information to the top of social media feeds across Alabama. However, not everyone has been getting these notifications, and state election officials have not been told who Facebook targets.
