SF 5090 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Social media platforms implementation of an interoperability interface requirement and enforcement and penalties provisions

This bill requires social media companies in Minnesota to adopt an open technical standard that allows users to easily move their data and connections between different platforms. It defines key terms such as "social media platform," "account interactions," and "expressed preferences" to clarify which services and user actions are covered under the new rules. The legislation aims to increase user control by mandating interoperability while explicitly excluding search engines, email providers, and other specific online services from its requirements.
