Hawaii HB566 aims to protect minors from addictive social media feeds.

Hawaii HB566 introduces regulations to safeguard minors from addictive social media feeds. It defines "addictive feed" as a service where media is recommended based on user interactions. Operators must use reasonable methods to determine if a user is a minor and cannot provide an addictive feed without verifiable parental consent for those under 13. The bill mandates operators to delete personal data of minors upon request and restricts the sale of such data. It also prohibits sending notifications about addictive feeds to minors between midnight and 6 AM without parental consent.
