    NYT report reveals how Meta, Snapchat, TikTok, and YouTube grabbed kids’ attention in school.

    Internal documents, which were disclosed as part of a wave of child safety lawsuits filed by school districts across the US, showed:

    Snapchat sent phone alerts to adolescents during school hours, urging them to share what was going on in their classrooms.

    TikTok gave the National PTA millions of dollars, in part to throw school events about online safety and provide favorable comments to journalists.
