The latest penalty is the third by the agency against a Meta-owned company, and targets Instagram for setting the accounts of children aged 13 to 17 public by default, as well as allowing teenagers to publicly share their phone numbers and email addresses. Meta said it plans to appeal the decision, adding that the regulator’s investigation is based on old settings that have since been updated.
