Adults Can Erase Childhood Vlogs

A new legal trend lets people who grew up as subjects of monetized family content demand removal or editing of those posts once they reach adulthood, with statutory penalties for noncompliance. California’s SB 1247 would formalize this right — requiring deletion within 10 business days and imposing $3,000 per day if creators refuse — and builds on prior rules requiring creators to set aside minors’ earnings. — Shifting legal control from creators/parents to the filmed subject upends how platforms, creators, and families negotiate privacy, labor, and liability in the influencer economy.
