Summary

AI-generated summary — verify against full text

Sammy's Law would require large social media platform providers, defined as services with over 100 million monthly active users or over $1 billion in annual gross revenue that allow minors under 17 to message and share content with people they met through the service, to create and maintain real-time application programming interfaces. Through these interfaces, a child (or a parent, for children under 13) could delegate permission to a registered third-party safety software provider to manage the child's online interactions, content, and account settings solely to protect the child from harm. The bill also sets requirements on data security, disclosure of delegations, limits on user data sales, and treatment of encrypted messaging, and it directs the Federal Trade Commission to register and oversee these safety software providers.
