Meta's latest overhaul of its privacy and safety tools, announced by the company Tuesday, is designed to ensure teens using its platforms are guaranteed a more age-appropriate experience, which should help better safeguard their wellbeing.
New notifications will regularly prompt teenagers to check their privacy settings to protect them from unwanted attention, including direct messages from strangers and offensive comments. With a single tap they'll be able to opt for Meta's recommended settings for teens, which will provide them with the most private experience.
Social media platforms have frequently come under fire in recent years for not doing enough to protect children and young people from being exposed to content that can be harmful to their mental health.
