something I found interesting is that NOW they are saying that teens under 18 have to have a "privet account"

the company has said they're going to stop notifying teenagers about new updates on Instagram between the time of 10 P.M. and 7 A.M. with the goal of hoping that they concentrate on sleeping and not checking Instagram.

you have to be 13 to make account

2024-09-19 13:53:44 UTC

KOSA stands for Kids Online Safety Act, and congress dithers whether or not to make it a law

All accounts under 18 are set to private

2024-09-19 13:53:56 UTC

I don't know

Something I found very interesting was that in Florida they are signing off on a ban that doesen't allow kids 13 or under to have social media

There blocking a lot of stuff

Parents should know when you have social media (parent consent)

"Meta has required teens to prove their age by submitting a video selfie or a form of identification"

parents supervise there teens accounts

2024-09-19 13:55:23 UTC

"Well, actually, the way parent supervision works on Instagram, both the teen and the parent have to agree that the teen's account will be supervised. And so the way it'll work is is for those teens who are under 16"

Instagram has also started to block somethings on Instagram from teen users such as self harm, eating disorders and etc

only friends can track you not strangers

2024-09-19 13:56:36 UTC

if a young person tries to log into a new account with an adult birthday, it will place them in the teen protected settings.

2024-09-19 13:56:50 UTC

Parents will be able to see how much time kids spend on social media.

2024-09-19 13:57:01 UTC

I don't want my parents stocking my account.......

2024-09-19 13:57:02 UTC

I don't like that Instagram is doing all this stuff to keep teens safe, but teens are going to still find a way around it and cheat the system.

Accounts under 18 will be transformed into a teen account.

Instagram makes all teen accounts private, in a highly scrutinized push for child safety

2024-09-19 13:57:48 UTC

"Meta said users under 16 will now need a parent’s approval to change the restricted settings, dubbed “Teen Accounts,” which filter out offensive words and limit who can contact them."

I feel like parents should be the one that is making the scream time and everything that will stop that teen, not the social media platform.

Mainly for noninfluencer teens?

Private accounts for teens are supposed to help their privacy.

So you don't do anything your not supposed to do.

Most teens are very negative about this idea.

"Meta’s push comes as Congress dithers on passing the Kids Online Safety Act, or KOSA, a bill that would require social media companies to do more to prevent bullying, sexual exploitation and the spread of harmful content about eating disorders and substance abuse."

"States have sued Meta over Instagram’s “dopamine manipulating” features that authorities say have led to an entire generation becoming hooked on the app."

2024-09-19 14:04:27 UTC

According to the articles, public accounts are not safe.

New systems to detect teens who lie about age

2024-09-19 14:04:42 UTC

"Meta requires users to be at least 13 years old to create an account. Social media researchers, however, have long noted that young people can lie about their age to get on the platform and may have multiple fake accounts, known as "finstas," to avoid detection by their parents."
