It's illegal to hand a minor harmful material. Meta did exactly that. I support people's rights to make and buy sports cars, But it is illegal to hand the keys to a minor and leave them unsupervised.

If someone sends a child a dick pic by physical mail, is the post company responsible?

If that someone is the post company, yes. The harmful material in this case is the E2E chat software.

The lawsuit is about child predators being able to send children harmful material over Messenger, not about Messenger itself being harmful.
