Require certain application store-based parental controls
SB 167 requires application stores (like those for smartphones) to include built-in parental controls that let parents restrict their children's access to certain apps. The bill applies to stores operating in the state that meet specific usage thresholds. These controls must be integrated directly into the store's platform, not as separate third-party tools. The law directly affects application store operators and provides parents with a standardized tool for managing children's digital content.
