Meta agrees to teen safety overhaul with time limits and feed changes
Meta has agreed to sweeping changes for teen users on Instagram and Facebook as part of a child safety settlement with 51 US states and territories. The changes include two-hour time limits, a non-personalized feed option, and other safeguards that must remain in place for at least 10 years. The settlement stems from a lawsuit alleging the platforms were designed to be addictive for children.
