The Texas Supreme Court has ruled that Facebook can be held liable for the sex trafficking that takes place on its platform, dealing a serious blow to the social media giant who has for years been accused of allowing pedophiles and sex traffickers to operate online with impunity. The ruling comes after a group of teen sex trafficking victims from Houston, lured from the site by abusive pimps, brought on the suit.Under the ruling, the Facebook sex trafficking victims will be allowed to move forward with lawsuits against the tech giant, who the court says violated the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, opening themselves up to the suits when they neglected to even make an effort to protect underage users from pedophiles.
