New York A09415 aims to protect minors online by restricting their access to social media and harmful content.
New York A09415 amends the general business law to add a new article protecting minors online. It prohibits social media platforms from allowing minors under fourteen to create accounts and requires platforms to terminate accounts of minors aged fourteen to fifteen if their parents do not consent. The platforms must also delete personal information from terminated accounts unless legally required to keep it. The bill defines "material harmful to minors" and mandates age verification for accessing such content.
