Our CEO @jimsteyer's open letter to @nflcommish asks crucial questions about how the league will protect young fans from gambling risks instead of promoting them. It pairs with our recent report and spotlight on betting apps and ads (finally!). Read it: commonsensemedia.org/sites/d…

Great show of support from New York kids and families and Common Sense Media at @GovKathyHochul's roundtable. We’re all calling for stronger safeguards on platforms with private chat features, like Roblox, Snapchat, and Discord, to keep predators away from kids online.

Our new report on boys’ online lives looks at gambling. While not old enough for betting apps or casinos, over a third of boys are gambling anyway, lured by video games & algorithms-exposures that warrant attention from parents, educators, & policymakers.

Common Sense Media’s @LizFol stood alongside @Sen_Gounardes, @nily and advocates to call on NY lawmakers to pass the Stop Online Predators Act (SOPA). This bill would make social media platforms safer by blocking strangers from messaging kids and strengthening safety settings.

NY, WE DID IT! @govkathyhochul signed our bill to require a warning label on addictive social media. This happened because parents, young people & advocates spoke up & kept the pressure on. Thank you Gov. Hochul, @Sen_Gounardes & @nily for your leadership in this huge win.
