The US Senate Judiciary Committee has scheduled a hearing on online child sexual exploitation for December 6, where it expects CEOs of Meta and TikTok to testify voluntarily. The committee has also issued subpoenas to Discord, Snap, and X to compel their CEOs to testify. The hearing aims to address the failure of social media companies to protect children online. Discord and X have refused to cooperate, necessitating the involvement of the US Marshals Service to serve the subpoenas.
