It's not puritanism. They're trying to get younger and younger audiences hooked on facebook and instagram without their parents worrying too much about unknown forces corrupting their kids.

>parents worrying too much about unknown forces corrupting their kids.

That is a pretty good definition of puritanism..

Puritans wouldnt let kids be marketed to, at all.
Well, it's not puritanism on Facebook's part. FB would even allow live-casting suicides if it made them a profit without negative press.

But it is Facebook catering to the puritanism of the parents for marketing purposes.
