New YorkNew York's attorney general on Monday proposed regulations for its crackdown on addictive social media feeds for children, including rules for verifying a user’s age.

- Associated Press

The Stop Addictive Feeds Exploitation (SAFE) for Kids ‘Act, passed last year, prohibits social media companies from showing feeds personalized by algorithms to users under 18 unless they have a parent’s consent. Instead, feeds on apps like TikTok and Instagram would be limited to posts from accounts young users follow.

The law also bars companies from sending notifications to users under 18 between midnight and 6 a.m.

The proposed rules for implementing the provisions include standards for determining a user’s age and parental consent.
