Show Notes
Indiana lawmakers have passed two bills to protect children from online risks and expedite assistance for missing youth. Haileys Law, named after a missing teen, enables police to quickly label high-risk cases, triggering faster statewide alerts. The second bill prohibits minors under sixteen from creating social media accounts without parental consent, granting parents control over online activity. Supporters cite a rise in youth suicides linked to excessive social media use, while tech firms anticipate pushback and potential lawsuits.
