YouTube, TikTok, Snapchat offering only small changes to ensure safety of young users: US …

WASHINGTON: YouTube, TikTok and Snapchat are offering only "tweaks and minor changes" in their operations to ensure young users' safety amid rising concern over the platforms' potential harm to children, the head of a Senate panel told the companies' executives Tuesday. "Everything you do is to add more eyeballs, especially kids', and keep them on your platforms for longer," Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said at the start of a hearing by the Senate Commerce subcommittee on consumer protection that he heads. The panel took testimony recently from a former Facebook data scientist, who laid out internal company research showing that the company's Instagram photo-sharing service appears to seriously harm some teens. The subcommittee is widening its focus to examine other tech platforms, with millions or billions of users, that also compete for young people's attention and loyalty. "We're hearing the same stories of harm" caused by YouTube, TikTok and Snapchat, Blumenthal said. "This is for Big Tech a Big Tobacco moment ... It is a moment of reckoning," he said. "There will be accountability. This time is different." The three executives - Michael Beckerman, a TikTok vice president and head of public policy for the Americas; Leslie Miller, vice president…

TikTok, YouTube and Snapchat say Their Sites are Safe But Senators Disagree | CBN News

Lawmakers are trying to decide if Big Tech and the World Wide Web should be regulated to protect children, as they investigate social media giants and whether key safeguards exist.  TikTok, YouTube, and Snapchat entered the Capitol Hill crossfire Tuesday, defending their platforms before the Senate subcommittee to protect children online while hoping to avoid any Facebook comparisons.  As these players see great growth in young users, they're also out to prove that they have implemented safeguards.  This comes after recent headlines highlighted how Facebook business practices could negatively impact children. Now for the first time, senators are working to put privacy regulations on Big Tech.  "You cannot trust these kids with Big Tech," Senator Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) said in his opening statement.  Witnesses included Snapchat Vice President of Global Public Policy, Jennifer Stout, TikTok Americas Vice President and Head of Public Policy, Michael Beckerman, and Google Vice President for Government Affairs and Public Policy, Leslie Miller. The names and faces behind the companies in question were cross-examined about their safeguards for children under 13.  Senators demanded specifics on areas such as data collection, algorithms putting ads and sexual content in front of kids, plus content ranging from glorifying eating…

WASHINGTON — Bearing down on hugely popular social media platforms and their impact on children, the leaders of a Senate panel have called executives from YouTube, TikTok and Snapchat to face questions on what their companies are doing to ensure young users’ safety.

An Instagram Model Posted A Photoshoot She Did With Her Deceased Father's Open …

This girl has since deleted her instagram, but as usual, Twitter reigns supreme over Insta, and this...display, will now live forever on our feeds. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with people? I know "everyone grieves in different ways" but can we draw the line here? Can we all agree that "posing for photos in front of your dead father's open casket" is where we stop ourselves from all this self indulgence? I imagine you'd get a decent amount of clout for a dead parent from instagram WITHOUT having to post a photo of their dead body, or taking thotty pics in front of the casket? This girl like, bought a hot dress for the occasion? I knew a girl once who's father was sick for a long time, eventually passing away, and she posted photos of his dead body in the hospital bed on Facebook. I thought it was fucking bonkers, but it was the first time I saw something truly shocking and sad, from someone I knew, going through some shit. Thinking back to that, which was much more "this girl needs some help and guidance" then "this girl is looking for attention," makes me truly, TRULY wonder how…
