Facebook used to have a team dedicated to analyzing their apps’ risks to children’s and teenagers’ health. The team concluded that there are indeed many serious health risks for both children and teenagers, especially teenage girls. Shortly after, it got disbanded, and all its recommendations completely ignored.

They took all that data and used it to exploit the kids.
But really, who wouldn’t? They’re not our kids! Well, nearly 100% of them aren’t. Little Johnny will forgive papa for it one day right?
Not ignored. They weaponized that info internally. And had a road map of potential liabilities and damages that may be involved.
Ignored? Yeah I suppose so, but they sure as shit used the data for their own gain. That team really was the road of good intentions
