Facebook is making teens’ accounts more private by default

Facebook will enable more private settings by default for anyone under the age of 16 who signs up for the platform, the company announced on Monday. As for teens who already have accounts, Facebook will display a prompt encouraging them to use these settings, as well as a toggle that turns them on in a single tap.

What Facebook’s billing as “more private” settings restricts details on an account so that only a teen’s friends can view the posts they’re tagged in, their friends list, and the pages, people, and lists they follow. They also require users to review the posts they’re tagged in and allow only friends to comment on their public posts.

Facebook is also trying to do more to protect teens from predatory adults. It’s testing a way to prevent teens from messaging adults on the platform that have been recently blocked or reported by a young person. Facebook won’t display these “suspicious” adults in teens’ People You May Know recommendations, either, and will start prompting teens to report the accounts that they block as well. Meanwhile, on Instagram, the company’s testing removing the message button on teens’ accounts completely when they’re viewed by a suspicious adult.
