# KIDS Act (HR 7757) Summary
The KIDS Act establishes new federal requirements for social media platforms and online services that collect data from children and teenagers under 18 years old. The bill would require these platforms to implement stronger age verification systems, obtain parental consent before collecting personal information from minors, and provide families with tools to control what data is collected and how it is used. Companies that violate these provisions could face penalties, and the legislation gives the Federal Trade Commission authority to enforce the rules.
Congress introduced this bill in response to growing public concern about children's online privacy and safety, particularly regarding how social media platforms collect and use data from young users. The proposal reflects a broader bipartisan interest in regulating tech companies' practices, though lawmakers disagree on how strictly to regulate the industry. If enacted, the law could significantly change how social media and online services operate, potentially requiring expensive new systems for age verification and data protection, while supporters argue it would better protect minors from privacy violations and manipulative marketing practices.
Key provisions
- Platforms with over one-third sexual content must use technology to identify and prevent minors from accessing that material.
- Social media platforms must set default settings limiting compulsive features and restricting other users from contacting minors.
- Social media platforms are prohibited from offering ephemeral messaging features to minors.
- Video game platforms must provide parental tools to limit minor-to-user communication and restrict minor purchases.
- AI chatbot providers must disclose to minors that they are AI systems and provide suicide crisis hotline information.
