    An internal company chart… showed how Meta tracked the percentage of 11- and 12-year-olds who used Instagram daily

    Well that’s damning and ought to lead to penalties. On the other hand,

    “complaints from the girl’s mother stating her daughter was 12”… Meta representatives “couldn’t tell for sure the user was underage”

    People make false reports about social media content and accounts all the time. I could mail the admins of sopuli.xyz and tell them that I’m @[email protected]’s mother and they’re too young to be using Lemmy. Said admins should ignore me like the crazy person I am unless I can prove it.

      When in doubt, the default should be asking for proof. You can’t sell alcohol to a kid and then say you didn’t check for ID because it’s too much of a hassle.

        In a physical business yes but in the internet anyone can fake anything.
