AB 886 would require companies like Meta and Google to pay a percentage of their advertising revenue as a 'journalism usage fee' to news organizations producing content shared on their platforms.

The California News Publishers Association criticizes NetChoice's arguments against AB 886 as distractions from the bill's core purpose of ensuring fair compensation for news content shared by tech platforms.
