1. THE ONE THING

New Mexico filed a proposed $3.7 billion fine against Meta—the largest state-level regulatory action against a social media platform to date—alongside sweeping mandated changes to its social platforms. State attorneys general are no longer issuing warnings; they are imposing material financial consequences and operational mandates that could reshape platform governance nationally. This regulatory escalation is corroborated by California's $12.75M CCPA fine on General Motors for selling connected car data and the Golden State's announcement of its largest CCPA penalty to date.
