Abstract

Existing law, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (CCPA) , grants a consumer various rights with respect to personal information, as defined, that is collected or sold by a business, as defined, and also establishes, as approved by the voters as Proposition 24 at the November 3, 2020, statewide general election, the California Privacy Protection Agency and vests it with full administrative power, authority, and jurisdiction to implement and enforce the CCPA. This bill would require a social media platform company, as described, to report annually to the Department of Justice by April 1 of each year prescribed information relating to content management and the negative externalities, as defined, associated with the platform company's business activities. The bill would require the department to make the information reported to it available to consumers. The bill would require a platform company to also report that information to the Legislature and the agency. The bill would require a platform company to develop policies to assess and mitigate their negative externalities, to develop an "acceptable use" policy for users.
