Requires registered sex offenders who committed crimes against minors to use their full legal names on social media accounts.
The Securing Against Future Exploitation of Kids in Digital Spaces (SAFEKIDS) Act mandates that registered sex offenders who have victimized minors must use their full legal names on social media accounts. This applies to all social media platforms where users can interact, create profiles, and share content. Violators face a Class A misdemeanor for the first offense and a Class 4 felony for subsequent offenses. The provision applies retroactively.
