Big Tech and the Online Child Sexual Exploitation Crisis (QFR Responses)

QuestionWhy did Meta reject internal employee proposals—like exempting teen accounts from encryption and not recommending minors to adults via "People You May Know"—meant to protect kids from encryption's risks?

ResponseMeta says it "takes input seriously" but "may not adopt every proposal," defends encryption as safety-compatible, and lists mitigating features (restricted teen DM defaults, suspicious-account non-recommendation, nudity protection, parental supervision) without directly explaining why the specific employee suggestions (no encryption for teen accounts, no "People You May Know" minor-adult recommendations) were rejected.
