Facebook bans social media for under 14s in Florida
A federal appeals court in the United States has ruled that the state of Florida can enforce a law prohibiting children under 14 from using social media platforms that contain features which may be addictive, such as auto-play videos and continuous scrolling. The court lifted a preliminary injunction that had prevented the law from being enforced, confirming that the law does not regulate the content provided by platforms nor does it conflict with the U.S. Constitution. The law aims to protect children's mental health amid an ongoing widespread debate about the impact of social media on young people.
