A federal judge in Florida has ruled that the state cannot enforce a new law banning children under 14 from using social media, citing that it violates the First Amendment rights of minors. The decision comes after a lawsuit was filed by NetChoice, a tech industry group representing companies like Meta, X, and TikTok, arguing that the law infringes on free speech. The judge's ruling emphasizes the importance of parental oversight and the availability of less restrictive alternatives to protect young users online, rather than an outright ban. This ruling marks a significant setback for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, who supported the legislation as a means to safeguard children from the potential harms of social media.
