Bill overview
This bill requires online entities to verify the age of individuals accessing certain online material and prohibits minors from accessing material deemed harmful. Entities must use reasonable age verification methods, such as digitized identification cards or third-party services, and the division will establish standards for these methods and define what constitutes ‘material harmful to minors.’ The bill also creates a fund to support investigations into cybercrimes involving child exploitation and allows individuals to sue entities that violate the law.
