      The illegal activity in question is not implementing stricter measures of preventing under 13 year olds of using the service without a parent’s consent. I really wonder how it’s possible to verify a kid’s parent’s consent in the first place. I guess Facebook and others manage to do that but I have no idea how.

        No. They just managed not to get sued properly (so far).
