Meta urges lawmakers to require parental approval for app store downloads by teens
Meta, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, called on federal lawmakers on Wednesday to pass legislation requiring parental approval for app store downloads by teenagers, as the company faces pressure to strengthen protections for children on its social media platforms. Antigone Davis, Meta’s global head of safety, said in a blog post that the company supports requiring app stores to get parental approval for downloads by teens under 16 years old, as opposed to an app-by-app approach. “Technology companies are developing distinct, age-appropriate experiences for teens, while lawmakers consider new legislation designed to protect their safety and privacy online,” Davis said.
