HB2733

Missouri HB2733 regulates online content involving minors, requiring social media platforms to remove or edit posts featuring minors upon request.

Missouri HB2733 amends Chapter 407 to regulate online content involving minors. It mandates social media platforms to delete or edit posts featuring minors within 72 hours of a removal request, unless the post is newsworthy or of public interest. The bill defines "minor" as anyone under 18 years old and "restricted material" as obscene or sexually explicit content. It also requires content creators to set aside earnings from posts featuring minors in trust accounts, which become accessible to the minors upon reaching 18 or being emancipated.
