New York has passed landmark legislation requiring social media platforms to display non-dismissible warning labels about addictive features like infinite scrolling, auto-play, and algorithm-driven feeds. Signed by Gov. Kathy Hochul on Dec. 26, the law treats algorithmic addiction like a public health risk—similar to tobacco warnings—amid rising teen anxiety, depression, and body image issues. Studies show teens spending 3+ hours daily on social media face double the risk of depression, and most voters support stronger protections for minors.
