Mark Zuckerberg Instagram App Endangering Children

Sharing Real-Time Location Exposes Underage Children to Pedophiles and Traffickers Online

  • US Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) sent a letter to Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg urging him to shut down Instagram's new map feature, which would put children's safety at risk by allowing them to expose their location to dangerous individuals, including pedophiles and traffickers. "We write to express our concern with the introduction of Instagram's new map feature, which would allow individuals to share their location in real time with users around the world. For years, we have sounded the alarm regarding real time location sharing on social media platforms"specifically when it comes to underage users"and we again urge you to protect children's safety instead of potentially exposing their location to dangerous individuals online, including pedophiles and traffickers."

    No surprise that a greedy oligarch would put profits before people and in this particular case putting children at risk of being abducted, lured, or tricked by sex maniacs. This year Mark Zuckerberg also defunded a special school for under-privileged children in California. More info: Human Trafficking Using Instagram and Facebook Report.
