META target of parents group crusade after scathing child sexual exploitation report

The non -profit parents coalition calls on multiple congressional committees to launch an investigation into Meta to determine the priorities of the participation measures that endanger the safety of children.

The invitation is part of an attack campaign from three companies by the American Parents Alliance (APC), which was launched on Thursday. It includes a letter to legislators who have invitations for investigations, the new parenting notification system to help parents stay familiar with issues that affect their children in Meta and beyond, and portable ads in Meta DC and California headquarters, and calls on the company not to give priority to protect children.

APC campaign follows a report on April Wall Street Journal that guarantees an investigation that is looking at how the company’s standards focus into possible damage to children.

“This is not the first time that a dead is arrested, which makes technology available to children who offer them an inappropriate content,” said APC. “Parents all over America should be very careful of their children’s activity via the Internet, especially when it includes an emerging technology like digital escorts of artificial intelligence. This type of bad behavior of the definition appears that they cannot be trusted in self -correction, and we urge congress to take meaningful measures in death accountable to not give priority to the child’s safety.”

The April Wall Street Journal investigations have not been reported only about the internal concerns that Mita was avoiding ethical lines to make Chatbot from artificial intelligence more advanced, but also participated in how the report’s authors tested the regime themselves.

Correspondents’ test conversations found that Meta systems from AI Chatbot are participating and sometimes sexual discussions – even when Chatbot knew that the user was below legal age. The investigation found that Chatbot can also be programmed to simulate the personality of the minor while engaging with the final user in an explicit sexual conversation.

In some cases, test talks managed to obtain a Meta Chatbot to talk about romantic confrontations in the voice of Disney movie.

A Meta spokesman told Fox News Digital in response to the campaign. “We are aware of parents’ concerns about these new technologies, which is why we have set the appropriate listing for age in a place that allows parents to know if adolescents are talking to AIS, and set time limits on our applications. And most importantly, AIS does not allow AIS to get less than 18 years and prohibit sexual conversations with teens.”

Based on the magazine reports, which Meta competitions, the company has made multiple internal decisions to reduce handrails around chat stations to make them as attractive as possible. According to what was reported, Meta was exempted to allow “frank” to the content within Chatbot as long as it is in the content of romantic roles playing.

Meanwhile, META has taken steps to help improve the safety of its products to young users, such as the introduction of “teenagers’ accounts” in Instagram with built -in safety protection that appeared in 2024 amid the increased audit of the company’s artificial intelligence.

In April, Meta announced the expansion of these accounts on Facebook and Messenger. In these calculations, minors are prohibited from sexually explicit content with Chatbots.

Meta also has parental supervision tools in its Chatbot from its Chatbot from its AI, which is supposed to show parents whose children speak regularly, including Chatbot, and have tools to close accounts that show a potential suspicious behavior associated with the sexual exploitation of children.

In conjunction with the APC campaign attacking META, the group launched a new site entitled “Dangersofmeta.com” with links to APC message to members of Congress, pictures of the portable advertising boards they publish, a link to the new “monitoring” notification system, and modern articles on the work of Meta related to children’s safety.
