Transparency in Social Media Content Moderation Policies

This act aims to ensure social media platforms clearly inform users about their content removal or restriction policies. This allows citizens to make informed choices about services, knowing what content is permitted and what might be removed or flagged. The goal is to increase transparency and fair competition in the online services market.
Key points
Social media platforms must openly and clearly describe their content moderation policies.
Users must be informed if their content is moderated, the reasons why, and available redress options.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) will enforce these rules, protecting citizens from deceptive practices.
