A federal judge has ruled that social media platforms must comply with New York state law requiring them to publicly disclose their terms of service and detail how their content moderation policies are enforced. The decision comes in a case where a company argued that such transparency could expose internal business practices. Legal experts say the ruling could set a precedent for how platforms handle user data and moderation decisions. Critics of the law had previously claimed it would force companies to reveal sensitive operational details.
