Given the vendor here, call me skeptical - OR some peeps who should KNOW better, are getting played here!
If META's settlement agreement with 29 states is all about improving child safely in social media - then why would the state AGs agree not to sue Meta under existing child safety laws over its retention and use of children’s data????
Meta's agreement says that the state AGs have agreed to “fully, finally, and forever” not to bring any past, present, or future COPPA (Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) claims—or claims under similar state laws, re Meta’s use of children’s data.
BUT, COPPA is a FEDERAL law primarily enforced by the FTC, and not by the states. The FTC is not a party to this settlement, so what does that mean?
ALSO, it is not clear what data Meta will retain for training the model(s), how much behavioral information may be included, or how long it will retain the data. https://techcrunch.com/2026/08/27/buried-in-metas-18b-settlement-is-a-legal-pass-on-kids-data/ #AI #Meta #SocialMedia #Lawsuit #COPPA #ChildSafety #PersonalData #Privacy #1stAmendment #Behavioralinformation #DataPrivacy

The first time my baby spiked a fever at midnight, I tore through every drawer in the house looking for infant Tylenol. We didn’t have any. An hour later, back from a desperate pharmacy run with a screaming baby, I started building a proper first aid kit. #FirstAidKit #ParentingEssentials #ChildSafety #HomeSafety #MomHacks

Hook, hold, harvest and hide: Meta’s alleged strategy laid out in first week of landmark trial
"Meta’s business can be boiled down to four words that begin with the letter H: hook, hold, harvest, hide, according to a lawyer who is prosecuting the world’s largest social media company.
The owner of Facebook and Instagram “hooks” in users, “holds” them on its platforms for as long as possible, “harvests” their data and then “hides” the truth from the public, she argued.
“Meta’s business model worked especially well for kids,” said Megan O’Neill, a lawyer for the state of California.
Her accusation opened the blockbuster trial against the US tech company on Tuesday in Oakland, California, just north of Meta’s headquarters in Silicon Valley. California has joined 28 other US states in suing the £1tn ($1.36tn) company for allegedly designing addictive products that lead to children being harmed."

SOURCE: STAT NEWS MENTAL HEALTHTITLE: Opinion: I’m a pediatrician. AI chatbots are grooming my patients

“Can we talk … in private?” The man was nervous, hands wringing like a little boy in trouble, though he was perhaps a decade older than I am.
A minute later, we were seated in the tiniest exam room, the one off in the corner that we try to never use. (I’ve re-created the conversation here to the best of my recollection.)
Read the rest…
