Existing law requires the Secretary of Government Operations to develop a coordinated plan to, among other things, investigate the feasibility of, and obstacles to, developing standards and technologies for state departments to determine digital content provenance. For the purpose of informing that coordinated plan, existing law requires the secretary to evaluate, among other things, the legal implications associated with the use of digital content forgery technologies, deepfakes, and technologies allowing public verification of digital content provenance. This bill would, on and after January 1, 2028, require a social media platform, as defined, to redact personal provenance data, as defined, from content uploaded to the social media platform by a user, except as prescribed, and would prohibit a social media platform from redacting system provenance data, as defined, from content uploaded to the social media platform by a user, except as prescribed.
