Meta Blocks Teens From Instagram Livestreaming

Meta is expanding protections for teen users of its Instagram, Facebook and Messenger apps, the latest attempt to quiet critics who say the social-networking company is harming the young. Teens under age 16 will no longer be able to host live videos without a parent’s permission or share images containing suspected nudity through direct messages, the company said Tuesday. Meta is also rolling out “Teen Accounts” with more stringent privacy settings to users on Facebook and Messenger after releasing them first on Instagram last September. Under the company’s more restrictive content settings for teens, recent changes to Meta’s policies that permit some hate speech, such as insulting language against transgender and non-binary people, won’t apply to users under the age of 18.
