Meta has spent months touting Instagram Teen Accounts as the solution to teen safety concerns. So we tested Teen Accounts. Our key findings: Instagram recommended sexual content to all of our test-teen accounts despite its promise of "sensitive content controls." Via WaPo. /1

Governor DeSantis is correct. States must be able to regulate the tools of AI that could severely impact our kids, our families, our constitutional rights, and our security. We already made the mistake of allowing social media companies to destroy our children’s mental health
Stripping states of jurisdiction to regulate AI is a subsidy to Big Tech and will prevent states from protecting against online censorship of political speech, predatory applications that target children, violations of intellectual property rights and data center intrusions on

The Teamsters can’t be any clearer — a prohibition on state regulation of AI would be a disaster for the nation. The 99-1 vote against in the Senate should be the end of this debate, and the proposal has no business being included in the NDAA. https://t.co/UzCGgsKkwW

@FrankPallone @RepDianaDeGette 👀MUST WATCH: @RepLoriTrahan takes down House GOP’s efforts to slip the disastrous AI preemption into the NDAA — wiping out state laws that protect kids, seniors, and veterans. It’s a big handout for Big Tech.

I wholeheartedly agree with *checks notes* Ron DeSantis?

Republicans are back with their outrageous giveaway to Big Tech. We can’t let that happen. I’ll fight this tooth and nail.

Our statement on Judge Boasberg's decision in the Meta antitrust case. TL;DR Meta gets away with its monopolistic practices and will continue operating the same way — which hurts young people.

This disastrous provision would prevent states from regulating AI companies and erode state protections for young people. We call on @RepMikeRogersAL @RepAdamSmith @SenatorWicker @SenJackReed to block this provision from the NDAA.

ok, I've read it. FTC v Meta opinion. Brutal. On one hand, it feels like the Court clerk fed Facebook's case-in-chief into ChatGPT and spit out an opinion. That said, the lesson here is likely to file in EDVA, or at least not where they did (DC)... 1/3

In his opening statement at E&C hearing on chatbots, ranking member @FrankPallone brings up our story on AI preemption, slamming any next attempt. "That is very unfortunate," he said (if I heard right)

This decision shows how our system is rigged toward Big Tech monopolies that have seized control over our daily lives. Meta, like Google, broke the law in plain sight, and our courts are letting them get away with it. We must dismantle this monopoly-first system.
Meta won a key lawsuit after a federal judge ruled that the company’s acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp don’t violate US antitrust law

House Republicans' attempt to try and jam through a ban on states' rights to regulate AI is not only wholly unpopular, it would be disastrous for our ability to set guardrails for AI companies to protect young people online.

This summer I led 20 GOP governors to pressure Congress to vote down its 10 year prohibition on state-level AI regulations — protecting Arkansas’ AI child-exploitation ban and other commonsense safeguards. Now isn’t the time to backtrack. Drop the preemption plan now and protect

CCIA — a tech trade org — is running misleading ads in POLITICO about the App Store Freedom Act, championed by @RepLoriTrahan and @RepKatCammack, would promote competition and break open Google and Apple's stranglehold on the app ecosystem. Don't buy their spin.

I'm a constituent here. I'd love it if Dems pivoted from infighting over the resolution to finding a way to give us an open primary process in IL-04.
Almost all House Dems are united against Marie Gleusenkamp Perez for accurately pointing out that one of their members resurrected Chicago machine politics to pull a fast one on his district. Just gross levels of hypocrisy on election integrity.

🚨 After getting crushed 99-1, Big Tech is back at it. They're once again attempting to sneak into must-pass legislation their 10 years of AI amnesty. They want license to steal and profit from copyright owners across America. "We must steal like China to compete against

The last time the House tried this, the Senate voted 99-1 against it! The last thing Americans want is a Congress that does nothing to safeguard artificial intelligence prohibiting states from doing anything either.
