Florida lawmakers revised their social media ban for minors, approving HB3 to ban children under 14 from addictive platforms without parental consent.
Florida lawmakers have revised their social media ban for minors, approving a new bill that aims to protect children from online harms and support parental rights. The revised bill, now included in HB3, bans children under 14 from social media platforms with addictive features like data collection algorithms and infinite scrolling without parental consent. However, critics argue that the bill is arbitrary and does not address the core issue of parental control, while some question whether the state has the authority to regulate social media usage.
