More than half of social media child safety features aren’t working as advertised, new research finds

New research has found that many social media child safety features are not functioning as intended. This discovery comes despite social media companies claiming to prioritize the wellbeing of young users through their safety tools and protections. The research indicates that more than half of these safety features are not working as advertised.

Further details on this research can be found through KVIA ABC-7's source, which provides more information on the findings and their implications.
