The Delhi High Court has asked Facebook to ban children below ______ years of age from creating an account.
Answer and explanation
Correct answer B
The correct choice is: “13”
In 2013, while hearing K. N. Govindacharya’s public interest petition about the use of social networking sites by minors, the Delhi High Court asked Facebook to ensure that children below 13 years of age are not able to open accounts. Thirteen is the minimum age in Facebook’s own terms of use, which follow the US Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act. The other ages, 10, 16 and 18, are not Facebook’s threshold and were not what the court asked for.
