Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) sent a letter urging Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg to bankroll a compensation fund for victims harmed by the company’s social media platforms. “I urge you to immediately create a fund endowed by your own personal wealth for the purpose of compensating those who have been victimized by your platforms,” Hawley wrote. “These families can never be made whole — but they can get some measure of justice and accountability from you.” Hawley took aim at Zuckerberg and the CEOs of TikTok, Snap,…
