Florida Law Prohibits Children Under 14 from Social Media, Requires Age Verification for Adult Sites Starting January 1, 2025
Jan 1, 2025, 05:30 PM
A new law in Florida that took effect on January 1, 2025, prohibits children under the age of 14 from creating accounts on social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok. The legislation allows exceptions for children aged 14 and 15, provided they have parental consent. This law is part of a broader trend in the U.S. concerning minors' access to social media and follows similar regulations being discussed in other countries. Additionally, starting on the same date, websites offering adult content in Florida must implement an age verification system or face penalties under a separate law (HB 3). This move has resulted in restrictions on access to major adult video websites for many Floridians.
