Meta Implements PG-13 Content Filters for Teen Instagram Users

Meta is implementing PG-13-style content filters on Instagram for users under 18 to restrict mature content, following criticism and lawsuits over teen safety. The new system automatically applies these settings to teen accounts, with parental controls and age prediction technology to enhance protection. The rollout will begin in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada by year-end, alongside additional safeguards on Facebook.

Similar situations involving racial or sexual slurs have also been identified in other games on the Switch.
