Only personally identifying information can be removed. And the bill is fairly restrictive in what counts. SS number, Credit Card number, drivers license number. Images and videos only count if they reveal the individuals current location.
Furthermore, the parents can only do this if the individual _identifies_ themselves as under 18. If they do not do so, Facebook (or whoever) doesn't have to do anything the parents request.
And again, this can only be removed if the parents have knowledge and access to the information they're trying to get rid of in the first place.
- nitrogen 15y agoThat sounds reasonable. I commented without reading the full article and bill because I know how much the Internet helped me experience the world when I was growing up in a small town, and would hate to see future generations deprived of the same benefits.
- lotu 15y agoThis dose sound reasonable but do we need a law for this. I get the feeling the Facebook dosen't want to publish SSN and credit card info. If a parent dosen't have the personal authority to prevent their kids from publishing the information online, then I don't think they have the right to have it removed. Now personal infomration realted to the parent they have the right to remove, just like every other individual though.
