When Electric Minds was running under my administration, I had a policy that we would delete any account from someone we knew to be under 13, just because the requirements for dealing with the personal information of children under 13 were way too onerous and resource-intensive for the operation we were running. Our policy explicitly stated, "This is a consequence of the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act, and Electric Minds is not responsible for this law or its effects." (In other words, "This may be bullcrap, and we may even believe it's bullcrap, but we've got to follow it anyway, so life sucks like that.")
