Ohio Parents Win Digital Control

Ohio’s controversial social media consent law has been reinstated after a court ruled it constitutional, giving parents the final say over their kids’ online activity under 16. The decision reverses a prior injunction and contrasts with similar laws struck down elsewhere, sparking backlash from tech giants like TikTok and Meta, who argue it infringes on free speech and is too vague. Judges defending the law see it as a necessary step to protect youth mental health from addictive platforms. The law mandates parental consent for social media and gaming apps, plus clear privacy disclosures, empowering families to regain control in a digital landscape many view as risky for minors. Ohio’s Attorney General hailed it as a win for families, while opponents vow to continue challenging the ruling. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
