The unredacted document from a lawsuit filed against Meta by 33 US states alleges that Meta is aware that children under 13 use its platforms like Instagram, and has "coveted and pursued" this demographic for years. The complaint accuses Meta of being deceptive in its management of underage users' accounts, purportedly neglecting to disable them even after reports and persistently gathering their data. It suggests that Meta tacitly allows users under 13 on its platforms, doing little to enforce age verification and prevent underage use, despite policies stating users must be at least 13. Meta denies the allegations and previously said it was "disappointed" by the lawsuit, committing to provide safe experiences for teens online.
