Messenger Kids: What Is Facebook Thinking?
In its quest to bring the entire world closer together, Facebook (NASDAQ: FB) has always had a small problem: small people. In many countries, children are not allowed to join the company's eponymous site. For example, in the United States, the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act dictates that sites that collect user information cannot sign up users under 13. Understandably, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has spoken out against this restriction.
Facebook's newest app may present a win-win solution. After consulting the National Parent Teacher Association and online security experts, the company is launching Facebook Messenger Kids, a stand-alone app that allows children ages 6 to 12 to message parent-approved contacts. A key selling point: There will be no advertising on Messenger Kids.
