At the end of July, the Senate passed two bills that tackle the issue of how minors interact with the internet. These bills are taking action to specifically address the responsibility on tech companies to protect children from the harms of social media. 🤳

The KOSA and COPPA 2.0 bills are the first legislative step toward safer social media protocol for minors in some time. Among other things, they are targeting inappropriate advertising, messaging systems, and time restriction features on social media apps.📲 As these bills, and us, await the decision of the House, more tech companies are continuing to weigh in.
