Meta’s child-safety deal exposes a privacy problem

## New Restrictions for Teens

Meta has reached a settlement with US states to impose stricter safety measures for teenagers on Facebook and Instagram. These measures include a two-hour daily usage limit and restricted access between midnight and 6am. The changes aim to enhance online safety for users under 18.

## Privacy Challenges

The settlement raises significant privacy concerns, as Meta must verify users' ages without collecting excessive personal data. Potential methods include using government IDs, facial recognition, or analyzing user activity. Each approach presents its own privacy risks.

## Parental Controls

Parents will have the ability to adjust some restrictions, acknowledging that different age groups may require different limits. However, this also shifts some responsibility to parents, who must ensure they are the legitimate guardians.

## Global Implications

While the agreement currently applies in the US, its influence is spreading internationally. The European Commission is examining similar safety measures, focusing on privacy-friendly age verification systems. The outcome of these efforts could shape future regulations worldwide.
