Bin inzwischen heftig genervt von diesem #Kurzvideoformat auf allen Plattformen, das einem bei jeder Gelegenheit mit möglichst krassen Effekten und Aufregerthemen vollmüllt. Muss sich #Gesellschaft wirklich daran gewöhnen? Lieber Textbeiträge...

Lawsuit alleges #SocialMedia giants buried their own research on teen mental #health harms | CNN Business

#Meta , #YouTube , #TikTok and #Snapchat know exactly how addictive their platforms can be to teens. And they continue to target teen users anyway.

Those are allegations a group of school districts is making in a lawsuit against the social media giants, according to a newly unsealed legal filing that quotes the companies’ own internal documents.

Americans!

The House Energy and Commerce Committee released a big pile of bills they're looking at a committee hearing on December 2nd, 2025:

-H.R. 6291, Children and Teens’ Online Privacy Protection Act

-(Draft), Kids Online Safety Act

-(Draft), Reducing Exploitative Social Media Exposure for Teens (RESET) Act

-H.R. 2657, Sammy’s Law

-H.R. 3149, App Store Accountability Act

-H.R. 1623, Shielding Children's Retinas from Egregious Exposure on the Net (SCREEN) Act

-H.R. 6290, Safe Social Media Act

-H.R. 6253, Algorithmic Choice and Transparency Act

-H.R. 6259, No Fentanyl on Social Media Act

-H.R. 6289, Promoting a Safe Internet for Minors Act

-(Draft), Safeguarding Adolescents From Exploitative (SAFE) Bots Act

-(Draft), Kids Internet Safety Partnership Act

-H.R. 5360, AI Warnings And Resources for Education (AWARE) Act

-H.R. 6265, Safer Guarding of Adolescents from Malicious Interactions on Network Games (GAMING) Act

-(Draft), Assessing Safety Tools for Parents and Minors Act

-H.R. 6273, Stop Profiling Youth and (SPY) Kids Act

-H.R. 6257, Safe Messaging for Kids Act

-H.R. 6292, Don’t Sell Kids’ Data Act of 2025

-(Draft), Parents Over Platforms Act

Notes:
-This is not a vote on the bills. This is just which bills they'll be considering for the final "child safety" package. It's unlikely ALL will make it into the final package.

-The House version of KOSA removes the highly controversial "duty of care" provision. This sets up a showdown with Senate GOP who want it in.

The most problematic bills are as follows:
-RESET Act (under 16 social media ban, doesn't mandate AV)

-Sammy's Law (surveillance on minors)

-SCREEN Act (Most broad AV law of them all)

-App Store Accountability Act (AV for App stores)

-KOSA (if the Senate gets their way)

-Parents over Platforms (AV for mobile apps, similar to the App Store Accountability Act)
