H.520 is a proposed bill that aims to enhance user control over personal data on social media platforms. The bill mandates that social media companies must allow individuals to delete their user data, obtain their data in a portable format, and transfer their data to other social media platforms. This initiative is designed to improve data privacy and empower users in managing their online information.
The bill emphasizes the right of users to have greater control over their social media data, reflecting a growing concern about data privacy in the digital age. By requiring these companies to implement such measures, the legislation seeks to ensure that individuals can easily manage their personal information across different platforms, thereby promoting transparency and user autonomy in the realm of social media.
