AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would require large social media companies (platforms with at least 25 million monthly U.S. users) to publish their terms of service on content and accounts tied to designated foreign terrorist organizations and Specially Designated Global Terrorists, along with contact information and a description of how users can flag violations. Companies would have to send the Attorney General reports three times a year with data on flagged and actioned content, broken down by type of content and how it was flagged and handled. The Department of Justice would post these reports in a public, searchable online database. The Attorney General could seek civil penalties of up to $5,000,000 per violation per day, and the Director of National Intelligence and the Comptroller General would report to Congress. The law would end 5 years after it is enacted.
