They definitely are, though I don't know how even 4.5 billion dollars would help the issue any.
That's only around 6k per student for the regions suing. I would argue Meta and co have done more than that in damage to each student and have likely also earned more than that off of each student. That money could do A LOT for our underfunded schools. Maybe they could finally teach everyone the dangers of using social media provided by companies with no morals who prefer to profit off of genocide and strife.
