The bill, authored by state Sen. Nancy Skinner , failed to overcome intense opposition from the tech industry that helped kill a similar measure last year. It would have let the attorney general and public attorneys file civil suits against social media companies for knowingly putting in addictive or harmful designs and algorithms, which could lead to a $250,000 penalty per violation plus litigation costs.
The bill’s death came despite State Attorney General Rob Bonta throwing his weight behind the bill late June, adding momentum.Some changes had been made throughout the legislative process in an attempt to address concerns from tech groups, who criticize the measure as an abridgment of free speech that could force social media platforms to close themselves or important content off to children.
More recent changes include doubling the number of days for companies to be in a “safe harbor” from the law. As long as a platform corrects an algorithm or feature within 60 days of a quarterly audit, it wouldn’t be in violation of the law under the current bill.
