as mentioned in Image: PexelsKeeping up with your friends on all the various social networks you share can be an organizational pain. Now, however, Facebook is making this a tiny bit easier by allowing you to bring your Instagram contacts into Messenger, which also syncs your Instagram and Messenger conversations.

Facebook wants to expand your Messenger contact list with a little help from Instagram. When you tap on "Connect Instagram," Messenger adds contacts from Instagram automatically.

Facebook and Instagram change to crack down on underage children – TechCrunch

as mentioned in Facebook and Instagram will more proactively lock the accounts of users its moderators encounter and suspect are below the age of 13. Facebook will require the users to provide proof that they're over 13, such a government-issued photo ID, to regain access.

Facebook prohibits users under 13 to comply with the U.S. Child Online Privacy Protection Act, which requires parental consent to collect data about children.
