Bill Summary

An act to add Part 2.6 (commencing with Section 6665) to Division 11 of the Family Code, relating to minors.

AI Summary

This bill requires social media platforms to provide a way for a "child influencer" (someone at least 18 years old who was featured as a minor in paid content) to ask a "vlogger" (a parent, guardian, or family member who shares content featuring the child influencer and gets paid for it) to remove or edit content where the child influencer appears as a minor. The vlogger must comply with this request within 10 business days. The bill also allows a child influencer to sue a vlogger who doesn't comply, seeking damages, legal fees, and other relief, with courts considering factors like emotional harm and safety risks when deciding on injunctions.
