The Kids Online Safety Act (KOSA) has been reintroduced in the Senate after a failed sprint to become law last year .

The bill would require tech platforms to take steps to mitigate harms like depression and eating disorders to children that use their services.

Apple has expressed support for the bill, as it continues to battle over whether apps or app stores should be responsible for safeguarding children online.
