S. 1748 — Kids Online Safety Act

Anti-Discrimination

What it does

The Kids Online Safety Act requires online platforms to implement safeguards protecting minors from addictive design, privacy harms, and exploitative content. It mandates that platforms provide parental controls, disclose algorithmic ranking systems, and allow users to switch to non-personalized feeds. The FTC and state attorneys general enforce violations as unfair trade practices. A new Kids Online Safety Council will study age verification and recommend best practices.

Quorum's transparency scan gave Kids Online Safety Act a moderate transparency flag.
