New York: (Right Now News) Meta has announced new measures for verifying the age of younger users. These measures will be based on artificial intelligence (AI) technology, scanning users’ height and bone structure.

In a statement released by Meta, it was stated that this system estimates age by observing visual cues like height or bone structure. Accounts of users who may be under 13 years old will be deactivated.

Meta has stated that Facebook and Instagram users can also report accounts of children under 13. This will help identify and delete accounts of younger users.

The company says it aims to provide a safe online experience for young people. It has been developing tools and features for years to offer a secure and age-appropriate experience for younger users.

It should be noted that these new age verification measures are part of global efforts by governments to protect children from harmful content and are now being introduced in various regions.
