Federal Judge Blocks Part of Texas Social Media Law, Allows Parental Consent Requirement
Sep 2, 2024, 03:47 PM
A federal district court judge has temporarily blocked a portion of a new Texas social media law intended to restrict children's access to certain online content. This law, which went into effect on September 1, aimed to limit minors' exposure to content on platforms like Instagram and Facebook. However, the court will allow the state to enforce a requirement that parents consent to their children's new social media accounts. The decision comes amid a series of new laws implemented in Texas, with the blocked provision being a notable component of the legislative changes.
