The Utah Model: Data Rights & the Future of Social Media

Utah recently became the first state to pass a law on social media data portability and interoperability. The Digital Choice Act gives individuals the right to access and transfer their social graph and content in real time — a critical step toward giving people more control over their digital lives and enabling greater innovation online. Join Project Liberty’s policy team for a conversation with Rep. Doug Fiefia about the Digital Choice Act, the bill’s sponsor, to learn why laws like this matter, how they can help rebalance power online, and where they fit within the growing wave of social media legislation across the country.
