Bill > S3017

This bill requires social media companies, defined as entities operating an Internet-based platform with at least five million account holders worldwide that allows users to create profiles, connect with others, and post content, to provide a 24-hour toll-free telephone number for New Jersey account holders, meaning residents who have or create an account on such a platform, to report fraudulent activity like unauthorized access to their social media accounts. The bill also mandates that these companies prominently display this toll-free number and its purpose on account security email notifications and on their platform's homepage or help page, and failure to comply will be considered an unlawful practice subject to penalties under existing New Jersey consumer protection law.
