On Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg issued an apology to parents during a Senate hearing on online child safety. The apology came in response to concerns raised by Missouri Sen.

“I’m sorry for everything you’ve all gone through,” said Zuckerberg, who stood up and faced the crowd. “It’s terrible. No one should have to go through the things that your families have suffered.”
He added, “This is why we have invested so much and we are going to continue doing industry-wide efforts to make sure no one has to go through the things your families have had to suffer.”
