https://techcrunch.com/2023/05/03/ftc-moves-to-completely-prohibit-meta-from-monetizing-kids/ > The Federal Trade Commission alleges that Meta has “repeatedly violated” privacy rules, and proposes to tighten the agency’s 2020 order against the company, completely barring it from monetizing data from anyone under 18 in any way, among other new restrictions. > The order in question took effect in 2020, but was created in 2019 as part of then-Facebook’s $5 billion settlement after the company violated a previous order. Now the FTC says that Facebook/Meta has violated the new order, but also the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act Rule.
