Gross COPPA Violation
Videos
A short video claiming that the chat app PiperChat violated COPPA, the US children's online privacy law, because it had no parental consent form. It says this led to a very large fine. It appears to be a clip from the TV show Silicon Valley.
HN mostly cites it as a humorous or illustrative reference to an extreme COPPA penalty.
