Meta’s has been listening to some concerns after all especially now after some pressure.

These changes very well could help parents moderate their teens. Meta’s head of product says these changes address particular 3 concerns in an Npr interview.

Will this be the end of the complaints and concerns geared towards Instagram, probably not.

    Now, as a new measure, if an underage user tries to set up a new Instagram account with an adult date of birth on the same device, the platform will notice and force them to verify their age.

    So another reason to force user to hand over PII for “age verification” if they “suspect” (with AI ofc) a new user is underage. Nice.
