Facebook's new app for teens is 'always public and viewable by everyone'

The Lifestage app invites Generation Z to create a series of selfie videos, but gives its young users no tools for controlling privacy and who sees the content

Facebook has launched a video selfie sharing app for teenagers which has no privacy settings. What could possibly go wrong?

Lifestage, which launched in the US on Friday, is restricted to users under the age of 21. It's designed to make it "easy and fun to share a visual profile of who you are with your school network".
