AI Summary
This bill prohibits social media platforms from using designs, algorithms, practices, affordances, or features that could cause child users to develop eating disorders, such as promoting diet products. The bill defines key terms like "social media platform," "child user," and "eating disorder." It requires platforms to conduct internal and independent audits to identify and correct any problematic practices, unless the platform is majority-controlled by a low-revenue business or primarily enables video game play. The bill imposes civil penalties of up to $250,000 per violation for noncompliance, and it specifies that platforms are not liable for certain user-generated or third-party content.
