Meta has updated restrictions for teen accounts on Instagram, aligning content guidelines with PG-13 movie standards. The updated policy aims to shield teens from sexually suggestive material, graphic imagery, and content related to alcohol, tobacco, or marijuana. Fr. Michael Baggot, Visiting Scholar at the Institute for Human Ecology and a Theology Professor at the Catholic Institute of Technology, joins to share more. He discusses the effectiveness of the new restrictions to protect teens online, the role of parents versus tech companies in safeguarding youth, and the mental health risks social media poses to young users.
