Social media platform requirements established relating to accounts for minors, and enforcement mechanisms established for regulations on child social media accounts.

Summary

The law forces platforms with 10,000+ users or $1 billion in revenue to post detailed information about how they limit interactions, rank content, and send notifications. It also requires them to estimate a user’s age after a set amount of usage and to treat anyone under 16 as a child unless they can prove the user is older with at least 80‑90% confidence. For children (15 or younger) the platforms must get verifiable parental consent, set the most private settings by default, and cannot change those settings without consent.
