"Californians deserve to know how these platforms are impacting our public discourse, and this action brings much-needed transparency and accountability to the policies that shape the social media content we consume every day," Newsom said in a statement released by his office.
The bill also requires social media companies to submit reports to the Attorney General no later than January 1, 2024 that includes the company's current terms of service, specified content categories, the company's guidelines to address said content on their individual platforms, and data relating to content violations.
