Legislative changes in Florida: minors will not be allowed to use social media starting in January 2025

2024-12-25  Per Henrikson

Florida will implement a law that prohibits children under 13 from using social media and requires parental permission for teenagers.The regulations require technology companies to delete accounts belonging to users under the age of 14 and to implement age verification mechanisms, such as facial scans or official identification, to restrict access to adult content sites. Companies that fail to comply could face significant fines.
