Am I the only one that finds this frightening? Adults pretending to be teens is going to open up a whole new can of worms the implications are crazy. Keep in mind this is an app with millions of teens hooked on to it. What’s more terrifying is what happens to explicit material where consenting adults use filters like this? Is the law keeping up with tech like this?

There's not much the law needs to do. People just need to learn that when they open up apps like that they're going into a world full of fake shit. Nothing is real.

  There is a fundamental difference between text and live video. If someone texted you that they they are Obama and they want to be friends, very few people would believe it, some may still fall for it no doubt. But now someone video calls you and you see Obama on the other end, and you’re able to have a conversation with them, then a lot more people would believe them.

There are already older models who facetune to look like teens. I've heard of at least two cases that were made public, I'm sure there are more that stay under the radar. It's definitely strange and not healthy for society.
