in California, a new law will allow teenagers to remove photos or embarrassing comments they have posted on their personal pages on social networks.
California really wants to save the reputation of its electronic teenagers with this called "the law of gum" which was enacted by the California Governor and will come into force on 1 January st 2015 to give time to the relevant websites to adapt to the new regulations.
defenders of the law aimed errors of Internet users for young people not to follow them throughout their lives, especially once they start their career. Indeed, profiles on social networks are increasingly controlled by recruiters. "The mistakes of youth can follow authors throughout their lives and their fingerprints must follow them wherever they go," said James Steyer, founder of Common Sense Media organization, which supported the law.
the law allows people under 18 the right to "remove or require the removal of any content or information posted on a Web site or application." In fact, social networks such as Twitter and Facebook already offer this feature on their websites. "This is a revolutionary protection for our children, who post photos and comments before thinking of the consequences of their messages," said Democratic Congressman Darrell Steinberg, who is the author of the law. Two limitations exist in this text as :. it does not protect any comments or images downloaded by other teenagers, and it does not allow adults to remove their youthful errors
Some oppose this law, saying it makes things even more difficult for websites that are already struggling with various local laws in every US state. yet others believe that the text could encourage websites to gather even more personal information than their younger users. " in addition to the need to know the age of these young WebUsers, sites will need to know if their life in California or not, "said Stephen Balkam, President of the Institute of online security of the family (FOSI).
