Meta lowers Quest minimum age to 10.

Meta is lowering the minimum age for its Quest headsets from 13 to 10, with parental approval required for account creation and only safe apps recommended for that age group. Ads won't be shown to kids, and profiles and avatars for 10 to 12-year-olds will be set to private by default. The move is likely an attempt to get ahead of potential lawsuits or fines related to underage users, and the company is sensitive to the subject, requiring involved employees to sign a separate legal disclosure and mark docs as "A/C privilege."
