Bill > S595

This bill establishes certain requirements for social media websites concerning content moderation practices and creates a cause of action against social media websites for violations. Key provisions include requiring social media websites to publish their content moderation standards, apply them consistently, notify users of changes, and provide mechanisms for users to access and opt-out of certain algorithms used for content prioritization and user banning. The bill also prohibits social media websites from censoring or selectively suspending candidates for office or journalistic enterprises based on content, with some exceptions. Violations can result in penalties and allow users to bring private lawsuits.
