Parental Consent for Teens Online | Canada News

Published 1 day, 18 hours ago
Description

A major new bill is advancing in the House to shield minors online, requiring parental consent before social media platforms can collect or use data from users under 16. Originally proposing a complete ban on underage accounts, the bill was revised after subcommittee debate — now focusing squarely on data privacy through consent. Though it passed by voice vote, some Democrats still oppose it, signaling that the fight isn’t over. This marks a pivotal moment in the ongoing battle for digital safety and youth privacy.
