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

QuestionPadilla notes that not all caregivers act in a child's best interest — including abusive parents and parents who could endanger an LGBTQ+ child — and asks how Meta's parental tools account for this.

ResponseMeta says its parental-tool design incorporated input from civil society and LGBTQ+ advocacy organizations, points to baseline teen protections that don't depend on parental supervision, and cites its LGBTQ+ Help Center resources, "Be Kind Online" guide, Trevor Project link, and Project Height civil-rights review process — without directly addressing how the tools specifically prevent abusive-parent misuse.
