Children’s Privacy: Learning to lie for Meta a core competency for kids?
Meta, the “My Entitlement To your Assets” company has a penchant for using children to get mass amounts of data you might not otherwise give them. In fact, newly unsealed documents from the 33-state & DC Instagram and Facebook lawsuit, shows despite 1.1 million reports of under-age users on its platform, the company only removed a fraction of them and continued to collect children’s personal information. In fact, allowing this federal privacy violation was an “open secret” routinely documented in the company. And, if that weren’t enough, the company also made it easy for underage users to lie about their age to register.
