"Florida Legislature Enacts Ban on Social Media for Minors Under 16 Despite Constitutional Debate"

Florida lawmakers have passed a bill to ban children under 16 from using social media, despite concerns about its constitutionality. The bill targets platforms with addictive features and aims to protect children from cyberbullying and predators.
