Whistleblower Claims META Does Not Protect Minors from Sexual Advances Online | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

An Instagram whistleblower claims the social media giant META fails to protect teens, after his own daughter received unwanted sexual advances on the Instagram app. Arturo Bejar, Former Facebook Director of Engineering for Protect and Care says, "META knows the harm that kids experience on their platform and the executives know that their measures fail to address it." Bejar testified Tuesday before a Senate sub-committee. He claims that META's leadership, including CEO Mark Zuckerberg, knowingly turned a blind eye, ignoring years of warning about the danger social media poses to teens. Instead, Bejar says, they fostered a culture of "see no evil, hear no evil" that overlooked evidence of such harm. Public Policy Analyst at the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, Megan Griffin, joins to discuss this further. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
