Instagram Makes Teen Accounts Private by Default
Meta will place all users under 18 into restrictive teen accounts starting in the U.S., U.K., Canada and Australia with EU users to follow later. Under-18s will have private accounts, limited DMs, restricted sensitive content, 60 minute activity alerts and a sleep mode from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. Teens can turn off some controls, with parental consent for under 16. Meta faces lawsuits over youth harm and says new age-verify tech will curb fake adult accounts. The company emphasizes three parental concerns: unwanted content, unwanted contacts, and excessive use.

The market eyed Fed action and the inflationary backdrop as the S P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq showed muted moves.
