Adam Mosseri, the head of Instagram, is set to testify in a Senate subcommittee hearing in early December about the platform's potentially harmful impact on younger users following months of scrutiny on the issue.

"We all want young people to be safe when they're online so I look forward to these conversations," he said, "and you're going to hear more from us about safety, not only at Instagram but at Meta more broadly."

The Wall Street Journal first reported in September on what the company's internal documents and research show about Instagram's impact on young people. The report said Facebook knew Instagram was "toxic" for teen girls. Meta has pushed back on the Journal's reporting, and said its apps do more good than harm.
