LIVE on Jan. 31 at 9:30 a.m. ET | Tech CEOs testify before Congress on kids’ safety online

CEOs from five of the biggest technology companies, including Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Linda Yaccarino of X and Shou Zi Chew of TikTok, testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee about children’s safety online. Yaccarino, as well as the CEOs of Discord and Snap, are appearing before lawmakers after being subpoenaed by the committee. Senators are expected to grill the tech leaders about the spread of sexual content of children online and their companies’ respective efforts to combat child sexual abuse material, known as CSAM. Young people’s safety on the internet has been a major focus for lawmakers over the last year. The issue was front and center at a congressional hearing 10 months ago, where lawmakers grilled TikTok’s CEO about potential online dangers to young people.
