Meta has been advocating for legislative changes that would hold Apple and Google accountable for verifying the ages of users downloading apps, especially for teens. This push comes amidst a longstanding feud with Apple over control and privacy issues, with both companies shifting the responsibility of age verification onto each other. Recently, nine states have introduced bills to mandate parental consent for app downloads, marking a small legislative win for Meta, which has faced pushback from Apple in the past on similar initiatives.
"Meta argues that the responsibility for age verification should fall on app stores like Apple and Google, which has recently gained traction in state legislation."
"The ongoing feud reflects Meta's frustration with Apple's control and privacy stance, particularly regarding the development of features for new technologies like smart glasses."
