Meta: Come Clean and Protect Kids
New investigations and whistleblower accounts point to a disturbing pattern at Meta: internal research about kids being groomed and harassed in virtual-reality spaces —and risks from AI features — was buried or minimized. When children are at risk, silence is deadly.
We’re building public pressure that Meta cannot ignore.
Our demands are straightforward: publish the full record of youth-safety research; pause teen access to risky VR products and halt AI features for minors until an independent audit verifies strong protections; implement real age verification and effective parental controls; and publicly support stronger federal safeguards like the Kids Online Safety Act and COPPA 2.0.
Thanks,
Mary
