To protect kids, California might require chronological feeds on social media
California lawmakers have proposed a bill that would require social media companies to turn off algorithms by default for users under 18.
The bill also includes other provisions to protect the mental health of young users, such as implementing a chronological feed, muting notifications at night, and capping daily use at one hour.
Lawmakers believe that these changes can help reduce the negative effects of social media addiction on children. [ more ]
