California înăsprește regulile pentru copii. Interdicții pentru rețelele sociale și jucăriile cu AI

California's Governor Gavin Newsom has enacted new laws to protect children from technology risks, limiting access to social media features for those under 16 and banning AI chatbot toys for four years. The legislation aims to reduce psychological exploitation and enhance online privacy for minors. One law, Assembly Bill 1709, targets features that encourage compulsive use, while another prohibits the manufacture of companion chatbot toys. The package also includes stricter penalties for child sexual abuse materials, including AI-generated content. These measures have bipartisan support but face criticism regarding privacy concerns. California joins other states in regulating children's access to harmful online content.
