One of the takeaways from the last IG/CI checkin a couple of weeks ago was to create a gap analysis. I agree that while we're already behind in Child Safety the combination of (1) E2EE and (2) IG Youth, will put this area into greater and greater light and scrutiny in the coming ~6 months. With that in mind, my suggestion is that the teams pull together a gap analysis (vs "getting to green" given the above reality) and a required headcount. Guy, Pavni, and I can then take that forward to figure out where the funding would come from, whether a contingency ask or self-funding.

Adding Miki and I'm pretty sure everyone on this thread is aware of the concerns around whether we are adequately staffed to support Child Safety. (This has come up in the context of specific gaps in DS support, which I am working to address, but I believe XFN support overall is a concern.) Meanwhile, IG is spinning up youth initiatives that are being cast as a company-wide priority. These will put more pressure on the Child Safety team, and perhaps create more expectations for the youth cut of other problem areas (e.g. B&H). As you see below in a separate thread is raising concern about whether there is adequate awareness of our capacity constraints, and has suggested I raise this with Miki and So here we are. :) I'm curious, is there a plan to request additional capacity to provide more support, and/or in what org that capacity should live? If not, should we make that a priority and who should lead it? I'll tag @Miki to put an individual on the spot. :) Best, From: Date: Friday, April 23, 2021 at 12:48 PM To HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL (COMPETITOR) , Kristin Hendrix META3047MDL-014-00352799 Cc: Case 4:22-md-03047-YGR >, Brady Lauback >, Document 2889-57 Filed 03/27/26 Page 3 of 5 Pratiti Raychoudhury >, Moira Burke Subject: Re: Youth Family Data Circle - State of Youth Integrity Thank you for the great presentation today, and for this summary I'm very concerned about the lack of capacity, especially given our efforts on Youth across the company. I don't believe this is well understood by leadership and would like us to raise awareness of this, so we can advocate to staff the teams better. Please let me know how I can help here.

While our objective did not include creating any action items, as a form of summary I would like to call out some of the key risks/issues that stood out to me (others can feel free to add to this): 1. We use central age prediction to identify minors and adults. To our awareness, there is no effort to address adversarial evasion of age prediction. (It's worth calling out an analogy to location prediction, where historically there has been a team to address location prediction evasion, though there is recent discussion of whether that team should find a new home or even continue.) 2. Along the lines above, there is no focused effort to understand/address adults compromising the accounts of minors to facilitate abuse. 3. We don't know how robust age prediction is to (evolving) product contexts, e.g. E2EE, ePD and other potential privacy regulations, AP+, MSGR-only accounts (though are these being deprecated?), etc. 4. We do not have a specialized focus on minors within B&H. 5. We do not really have any MSGR coverage within B&H (except this may find a home in the future with an Unwanted Interactions archetype). 6. (Implicitly, to my awareness, we do not have a specialized focus on minors within any other problem areas in Central Integrity.) 7. Age verification (for under 13) has a big backlog and demand is outpacing supply. 8. Age verification has no ground truth to give robust measurement of effectiveness. Some reviews lack market specialization. 9. Perhaps the biggest issue: progress on these and any other issues not raised is hampered by lack of capacity. Indeed, we didn't dwell so much on gaps on existing areas of coverage but they are substantial as HIGHLY CONFIDENTIAL (COMPETITOR) META3047MDL-014-00352800 Best, From Case 4:22-md-03047-YGR Document 2889-57 Filed 03/27/26 Page 4 of 5 well. Central Integrity has 1 DS on Child Safety and we are working to get a bit more support, but addressing gaps will require a more robust XFN effort. We also didn't discuss this as a group, but if there are plans to build a new, youth-oriented app, that (like any another new surface) will probably need dedicated integrity focus.

However, I think it might be nice for folks to air any additional objectives in advance in case it helps us put things in context. For instance, one question on my mind is: having in mind we'll want to provide some additional support for integrity wrt youth, roughly what we think that looks like and in what org should it live. I don't think we should talk about this in this meeting, but I think it's a lens through which to read the current state of things.
