Instagram says it will alert parents if their teen repeatedly searches for terms related to self-harm or suicide in the US, the UK, Canada, and Australia

Starting next week, Instagram will notify parents if their teen repeatedly searches for terms related to self-harm or suicide. This feature, available in the US, UK, Australia, and Canada, aims to empower parents to intervene if their teen may need support. It will expand to other regions later this year. Meta also plans to implement a similar alert system for its AI chatbots.
