ResponseMeta describes existing parental supervision tools (Family Center, default privacy/safety settings requiring parental approval for teens under 16), its outreach efforts to publicize them, and its proposed federal legislative framework requiring app-store-level parental approval, age verification, supervision tools, content standards, and restricted (age/location-only) ad targeting for teens under 16.
