WASHINGTON—The U.S. Senate will hold an Oct. 26 hearing with tech firms Snap’s Snapchat, TikTok, and Alphabet’s YouTube about their platforms’ impact on young users, a panel said on Tuesday.
“Recent revelations about harm to kids online show that Big Tech is facing its Big Tobacco moment—a moment of reckoning,” said Senator Richard Blumenthal, who chairs the Senate Commerce consumer protection subcommittee holding the hearing.
