The bill amends section 86-1704 of the Revised Statutes Supplement, 2025, under the Parental Rights in Social Media Act, to enhance the provisions related to civil actions against social media companies or third-party vendors for violations of user rights. It allows individuals aggrieved by such violations to seek appropriate relief, which includes equitable or declaratory relief, damages, and potentially reasonable attorney's fees. Notably, the bill expands the scope of recoverable damages for minors or their parents to include injuries related to self-harm, addiction, sexual exploitation, or other harms resulting from violations.

Additionally, the bill defines a social media platform as a product for the purposes of product liability actions, aligning it with existing legal definitions. This change aims to facilitate legal recourse for individuals affected by the actions of social media platforms. The original section 86-1704 is repealed, indicating a complete overhaul of the previous legal framework regarding civil actions under this act.
