Instagram's policy of protecting children and young people remains unchanged. To accomplish this, you'll need to ask all of your users for their birth dates. This information will be used to develop new security and privacy procedures, as well as tailoring the social network experience to each age group.
Mark Zuckerberg's social media platform has been working for months to protect children: Changes were made in March to prohibit older users from sending private messages to those who are under the age of 18 and do not follow them.
Furthermore, beginning last July, users under the age of 16 have been made private by default, as a step to ensure greater privacy for the network's most vulnerable members.
Instagram will begin by asking users their age via a notification to execute the measure. If the message is sent numerous times without receiving a response, the application will be disabled until the age is input.
Furthermore, the social network will utilize an artificial intelligence system to verify that the age that is transmitted is the genuine age, preventing the possibility of fraud that many users may do in order to continue using the app without restriction.
