Fairplay launched their new report, Teen Accounts, Broken Promises: How Instagram is Failing to Protect Minors. They tested 47 of Meta’s Instagram safety tools for teen accounts and found that two out of three are ineffective or nonexistent, leaving children at dire risk of harm and abuse.

This report was done in partnership with Meta whistleblower Arturo Béjar, Molly Rose foundation, ParentsSOS and Cybersecurity for Democracy. We concluded that Meta cannot be trusted to self-regulate and that we need Congress to pass the Kids Online Safety Act.

The report was featured in the Guardian and BBC yesterday morning, and FairPlay created this toolkit to continue to raise awareness about the new report.
