Last week, we discussed action taken by three states, Texas, California, and Ohio, to enhance protection of children’s data online. In this second installment, we shift our attention to address the 2023 legislative efforts of three additional states: Utah, Arkansas, and Connecticut.

Over the past few years, states have launched various legislative expansion efforts to enhance the protection of children on social media and generally online. For example, this summer, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) signed into law the Securing Children Online through Parental Empowerment Act (SCOPE Act), which goes into effect September 2024. By doing so, Texas joins a multitude of other states that have passed similar legislation, including Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Minnesota, Ohio, and Utah. In part one of this two-part series, we discuss the child data protection laws in Texas, California, and Ohio.
