Facebook Documents Show at Least 5% of Teens are Addicted to Instagram

I think the big issue is that Facebook’s business model relies on keeping kids on their devices and on its platforms for as long as possible.

Often, that content isn’t good for them because Facebook’s algorithms don’t prioritize what’s best for kids—they prioritize what’s best for Facebook’s bottom line. – Josh Golan, Executive Director of FairPlay
