  • Missouri AG Andrew Bailey is issuing a regulation requiring social media companies to offer algorithmic choice for users in the state.
  • Under the rule, it will be an unfair, deceptive, or fraudulent practice under the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act to operate a social media platform without allowing users the option to select a third-party content moderator of their choice, as opposed to users relying on content moderation provided directly by the platform.
  • The AG's office will be taking public comments, and will announce forums to collect additional evidence about the practices of social media companies.
