SF 2908 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Certain sex offenders prohibition from accessing social media platforms authorization

SF 2908 requires parole officers and probation agents to prohibit certain sex offenders (those convicted of offenses against minors under 18 under specific Minnesota statutes) from using social media platforms that allow minors to be members or interact with others. It also mandates that these offenders share all their social media account details, including usernames and passwords, with their supervising agent. The commissioner must annually publish a list of qualifying social media platforms on a public website for enforcement. This law directly affects individuals on parole or probation for qualifying sex offenses against minors, focusing on restricting their access to platforms where minors are active users. The bill defines "social media platform" to exclude email, search engines, and business communication tools.
