Washington Republican Sen. Josh Hawley on Tuesday introduced a new bill aimed at fighting "social media addiction," an escalation in the vocal tech critic's wider campaign to impose consequences on Silicon Valley over its dominance in the global economy.
The Social Media Addiction Reduction Technology Act -- or the SMART Act -- would ban practices frequently employed by top social networking sites to keep users engaged, like YouTube's"autoplay" feature or Snapchat's"snapstreaks." The bill comes as tech giants face mounting scrutiny in Washington over their handling of disinformation, hate speech and user data.
