Facebook wants to create ‘safest possible’ version of Instagram for kids under 13 – By Russia Today Newsroom (Russia Today) / Mar 19 2021
Instagram’s owner has confirmed it is thinking about creating a version of the platform that children under 13 can use. The move comes as the app faces criticism over the safety of minors online.
Instagram head Adam Mosseri told BuzzFeed News that “more and more kids” want to use the photo-sharing service, but it is difficult to verify their age because most people do not get identification documents until they are in their mid-to-late teens.
