(The Center Square) — Foreign-owned social media platforms such as TikTok could face a big change in the Sunshine State if a bill currently being advanced by the Florida Senate gets signed into law.

Senate Bill 1448 is sponsored by state Sen. Joe Gruters, R-Sarasota, and would add transparency for social media platforms operating in Florida that are owned by foreign adversaries.

Identity theft happens when a criminal steals your personal information to commit fraud.

Some signs that indicate you could be affected by ID theft include bills for items you didn’t buy, debt collections for accounts you didn’t open, or denials for a line of credit.
