Meta called the announcement a “political stunt.” “The company’s recklessness has put young users at risk, and Facebook needs to answer for its failures.” “Facebook has repeatedly violated its privacy promises,” said Samuel Levine, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection. Meta would also be subject to other limitations, including with its use of face-recognition technology and be required to provide additional privacy protections for its users.
The FTC said the company has failed to fully comply with the 2020 order. This would include data collected through its virtual-reality products. regulators say Facebook misled parents and failed to protect the privacy of children using its Messenger Kids app, including misrepresenting the access it provided to app developers to private user data.Īs a result, The Federal Trade Commision on Wednesday proposed sweeping changes to a 2020 privacy order with Facebook - now called Meta - that would prohibit it from profiting from data it collects on users under 18.
