The project, called "See Something, Say Something Online Act", is proposed to be extended to "providers of interactive services." This definition includes social networks, media with readers' profiles and comments, app stores, podcast showcases, fintech sites, mailing lists, and almost any IT product that you can find. Companies operating such services may be required to report suspicious activity of their audience and registered users.
