  "account": "The Communications and Digital Ministry in Indonesia is urging Meta, the parent company of popular social media platforms Instagram, Facebook, and Threads, to fully comply with the country's Child Protection in Digital Space Regulation, known as PP TUNAS. This call comes after a significant ruling in the United States that found Meta's child safety measures to be insufficient. Alexander Sabar, the ministry's director general for digital oversight, announced that Meta has submitted written commitments to adhere to PP TUNAS. However, the ministry is skeptical of the effectiveness of these pledges and is closely monitoring their implementation. Sabar stated that the written commitments have not yet yielded tangible protections for users on Meta's platforms. The ministry is currently drafting an administrative fine to encourage Meta and other platforms to comply with the regulation. In June, Meta announced improvements to its policies in response to PP TUNAS, including restricting interactions between young users and those sharing explicit content, as well as limiting its algorithms from recommending sexually suggestive content to children. A Meta spokesperson did not respond to requests for comment.",
