New York proposes rules to limit children's social media addiction

New York has proposed regulations to limit addictive social media feeds for children, including strict age verification rules. The SAFE for Kids Act, passed last year, bans algorithm-personalized feeds for minors without parental consent, restricting them to content from followed accounts and prohibiting late-night notifications. These rules, subject to public comment, aim to address concerns about youth mental health and follow similar age verification laws passed in over 20 other states, many of which face legal challenges.
