Testimony Highlights Low Instagram Take a Break Adoption for Teens
During testimony in a multi-state trial, Instagram head Adam Mosseri said most teens never enable the Take a Break reminders. He testified adoption was only 1.8% in 2021, while a 2021 blog post emphasized that 90% of teens who turned it on kept it on. A coalition of attorneys general alleges Meta exploited young users, violated children’s privacy protections, and misled the public about platform safety.
