"Meta Implements Mandatory Restrictions on Teen Content Across Facebook and Instagram"

Meta Platforms, the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, announced new restrictions to hide "age-inappropriate" content for teen users, including sensitive topics like self-harm, suicide, and eating disorders. The company will also automatically place accounts for users under 18 in the most restrictive content control settings and make it harder for teens to search for sensitive topics. This move comes as Meta faces increased scrutiny and lawsuits alleging that its platforms have had a harmful impact on young users' mental health.
