Lawmakers seem committed to regulating Facebook, but are far from deciding how to do it. WSJheard explains. WSJWhatsNow
Following a Wall Street Journal investigation last month that showed Facebook was aware that its Instagram app can cause, senators have convened twice in two weeks, in part to better understand how to protect youths on Instagram. A Facebook spokesperson said the company welcomes productive collaboration with Congress to keep teens safe online.
With that in mind, a safe way to get some youths off Instagram might just be for senators to start using the app themselves. But lawmakers seem determined to effect broad change—and for good reason: Among other things, the Journal’s reporting last month showed that for teen girls with body-image issues, one-third reported that Instagram makes matters worse.
Still, Mr. Blumenthal himself made probably the most insightful point of last week’s hearing, showing he understands Facebook at least pretty well. “Basically, Facebook depends on teens for growth,” he said, noting, “It can only add more users as fast as there are new 13-year-olds.”
