KIDS Act Passes House Amid Online Safety Push | Business and Finance News

Published 2 days, 20 hours ago
Description

The House just passed the KIDS Act, a bold new effort to shield kids online—with mandatory age verification, smarter parental controls, AI chatbots revealing they’re not human to minors, and default settings that curb addictive features. While it’s a major win for safety advocates, Senate lawmakers want even more: a “duty of care” that legally holds tech giants accountable for harm to minors. With heated debates and ongoing negotiations, this vote is just the beginning of a complex, high-stakes push to protect young users without crushing innovation.
