Court Upholds Ohio’s Social Media Consent Law

A federal appeals court has overturned a lower court’s block on Ohio’s controversial parental consent law for minors using social media, ruling 2-1 that the law doesn’t violate the First Amendment — despite objections from NetChoice, a trade group representing tech giants. The Ohio AG hailed it as a win for parental control and child safety, while NetChoice argues the law chills free speech and plans to escalate to the Supreme Court, claiming states shouldn’t dictate parenting decisions. Similar laws across the country face similar legal battles. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
