Meta now allows preteens to explore Horizon Worlds with parent's permission | TechCrunch
Briefly

Meta's introduction of preteen accounts in Horizon Worlds allows parents to curate safe VR experiences, though doubts remain about the company's commitment to child safety.
By implementing a new rating system to review appropriate VR worlds for preteens, parents can now ensure their children explore safely while enjoying various virtual environments.
Safety measures in Horizon Worlds include features like a 'Personal Boundary' that prevents unwanted proximity, alongside visibility settings defaulting to 'offline' for preteen accounts.
Despite efforts, apprehensions persist among parents, particularly given Meta's history of mishandling user safety and recent accusations regarding the promotion of its platforms to underage users.
