EU alleges Meta fails to protect underage users on Facebook, Instagram
The EU says Meta may not be doing enough to keep children under 13 off Facebook and Instagram. Investigators say kids can easily get around age checks and that Meta's tools to find and remove underage users do not seem to work well. Meta says it already has ways to find underage accounts and is promising more steps soon, but the EU suggests these may not be strong enough. The case might lead to a big fine for Meta and could set rules for how social networks protect children in the future.
