New law helps correct past mistakes

California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a new law Tuesday morning that will allow minors a second chance to clean up their Internet history.

SB 568, signed into law by the governor, gives Internet and social media users under the age of 18 a chance to correct their online past before it becomes part of a resume that follows for life. The law goes into effect in January 2015.

San Francisco’s KGO Channel 7 was on campus Tuesday interviewing students like Jaroby Augusta, 18, a City College performing arts major, about the new law. Augusta supports the new law and told the TV station outside the cafeteria, just hours after the bill was signed, that he described himself as a victim of his own poor judgment, after a rant he posted online regarding a former high school teacher.

Augusta then told an Express reporter, who had approached the news van, that he immediately realized his mistake, but by then there was nothing he could do to fix it. “I like it [the law]. I mean hopefully it can prevent things from escalating a situation,” said Augusta. “It might give us a chance to fix the mistakes of our youth.”

The new law requires Internet and social media sites to allow users the right to remove postings made while under the age of 18. The law also requires the sites make clear how information can be removed and prohibits harmful or inappropriate advertising to minors, according to information in a statement released by Senate President Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento).
