Requires online service providers to publish clear, easy-to-find acceptable use policies that explain what behavior can lead to account suspension, termination, or limits, and to give users written notice and appeal options before restricting accounts in most cases. Providers must publish annual, machine- and human-readable reports on enforcement actions, and the Federal Trade Commission will issue guidance and enforce the law as an unfair or deceptive practice under the FTC Act.
The law sets timelines (most rules take effect 180 days after enactment; reporting starts within one year), defines covered providers and terms, allows narrow emergency exceptions for immediate restrictions, and extends enforcement to nonprofit organizations as well as for-profit platforms.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.
