"Teens use Search to find problematic content, as measured by the fact that Search is a top pathway contributing to teen SWVP and non-rec prevalence."

"A key goal in H1 2024 is to improve Safety for Teens. The top opportunity to do this is to improve enforcements on non-recommendable queries such as 'porn', 'meth', 'self harm', and 'skinny body', a gap that many competitors have already addressed." "Currently, IG shows account results when someone searches for a non-rec query. Some of these accounts have non-rec content, violating content, or sometimes neither, but these accounts can still cause perception impact for the users (teens, parents, adults) - especially when the user has opted to be in a Safe setting (SCC Less)." "Teens use Search to find problematic content, as measured by the fact that Search is a top pathway contributing to teen SWVP and non-rec prevalence. However, parents expect IG to limit the discoverability of age-inappropriate content for teens on search." "Despite SCC Less being our safest setting for teens and IG completely blocking inherently violating queries on search, teens still discover violating and non-rec content/entities through inherently non-rec queries. Results for SCC Less are not significantly safer than SCC Standard results." "It is quite easy to find violating and non-rec content by searching non-rec queries or violating adjacent search queries" "Account-level recall is low, and it is extremely easy for any teen to find pro-eating disorder accounts with very triggering content" "account and content-level recall gaps pose a huge risk to teen safety"
