#MEMEAct

The MEME Act (Mitigating Emergency Media Exploitation Act) is a proposed U.S. law aimed at regulating misleading or harmful digital content like deepfakes and AI-generated media. Its goal is to protect public trust and prevent misuse of manipulated media in elections, public discourse, or national security matters. The act would require labeling of synthetic content and empower authorities to take action against those spreading deceptive material. By promoting transparency and accountability in digital communication, the MEME Act seeks to balance freedom of expression with the need to limit the impact of misinformation and digital deception in today’s media landscape.
