Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis approved legislation Monday prohibiting minors under the age of 14 from using social media and mandating 14-and-15-year-olds obtain parental consent before logging on.
The new law, House Bill 3, compels social media firms to scrap existing accounts for children and permits parents to request their child’s account be terminated.
“Social media harms children in a variety of ways,” DeSantis said in a statement. “HB 3 gives parents a greater ability to protect their children. Thank you to [Florida House] Speaker [Paul] Renner for delivering this landmark legislation.”
My kids and what my kids are allowed to look at are my business, not the State’s. This is unacceptable overreach by DeSantis.
Good, if the Fed won’t step in to stop this mess since they’re the ones making money and help pushing this crap, this is good! Since the Fed won’t take away the protections of the social media companies, this is good!
Not good Jack. My kids, my business.
