California Style: regulating social media for kiddos

California has removed a provision from its social media for kids bill that would have permitted to sue social media companies for “addictive design features,” . SB 287 (2023 | CA) Tech lobbying efforts by top trade associations for the technology industry, NetChoice, which represents Meta, Google, Amazon, TikTok and Twitter, and TechNet, which represents Meta, Google, Amazon and Snapchat led to the removal of this litigation provision.
