Is this something that we can consider? Adding u/age tag to in-app reporting flow on at least profiles/accounts? Vaishnavi Jayakumar (3/23/2021 06:47:44 PDT): >Hey hey! I think there's appetite for this but would be a significant legal / privacy lift. That said considering how we're heading towards youth experiences, definitely not off the table. How much of a push are you getting / how much of a priority would you rate it? (3/23/2021 07:37:52 PDT): >Hmm mainly in one country but if it's a big lift I'm uncertain... I'm not sure if people will use it. I mean, if they did, it would be great cos it will give us signal on u/13 accounts we could use later for other efforts... but how do we know how much it will be used without trying it? (3/23/2021 10:57:27 PDT): >As part of the Age Verification workstream for Youth XFN, we are working on improving our underage reporting flows and backlog. It is a longer term project though (clearing the backlog is the immediate concern right now) (3/23/2021 10:59:18 PDT): >I can check with PM leading this to see if there's an overall underage reporting flow improvement plan coming together (3/23/2021 15:01:28 PDT): >Improving u13 reporting is clearly prioritized in the Youth XFN roadmap: U13 Reporting and Enforcement (P1)* Significantly improve Reporting & Enforcement for users under 13 years old across FB & IG to ensure compliance with our terms of use guidance and to build legitimacy with external stakeholders [POC: >Data point: For reporting, currently, there is no way for users to report U-13 users on Facebook in app and takes over 7 screens for users to report U-13 users on IG.
