The big idea
AI can explain COPPA clearly for teens, but the law has gray areas, especially for global apps where it doesn't apply.
Some examples
- Prompt: 'Explain COPPA in 5 sentences, focused on what changes when you turn 13.'
- Ask AI why some apps block under-13s entirely instead of asking parents.
- Have AI list 3 apps with strict 13+ rules and 3 with parental consent flows.
