The LISTOS Act of 2025 creates a new Federal Trade Commission advisory group focused on ensuring that automated technologies—such as speech recognition, language processing, and content moderation algorithms—work fairly across different languages without discriminating against language minorities. The advisory group must be established within one year and will include federal employees, platform representatives, content moderators, and community members to develop best practices for language-sensitive technologies. The law applies to major online platforms with at least 10 million monthly U.S. users, including social media sites, search engines, and messaging services, and addresses how these platforms use automation in content creation, monetization, and enforcement of their community guidelines.
