"The popular photo and video app said it is revamping Instagram's Teen Accounts to be "guided" by the Motion Picture Association's PG-13 movie rating. What that means: Users of teen accounts will be restricted to seeing content that contains the level of nudity, sexual expression, profanity, drug use, violence and other adult-oriented themes that they they would expect to see in a PG-13 movie."
""While Teen Accounts already have built-in protections, we understand that inappropriate content remains a top concern for parents - and that our existing content settings can feel confusing. We wanted to more closely align with an external standard parents are more familiar with, to provide clarity and peace of mind that when their teen is on Instagram, they're seeing content similar to what they'd see in a PG-13 movie by default.""
Instagram is aligning supervised Teen Accounts with the Motion Picture Association's PG-13 standard to limit exposure to nudity, sexual expression, profanity, drug use, violence and other adult-oriented themes. Teen Accounts are available to ages 13-17 and can be supervised by a parent over 18. Supervised teen accounts will be automatically placed in the PG-13 experience and cannot opt out without a parent's permission. The PG-13 setting applies across Feed, Stories, comments, recommendations and search results, and it applies to entire accounts to enforce consistent content limits. The change aims to provide clearer, more familiar protections for parents.
