California Proposes Minimum Age for Social Media
|
8.2
California lawmakers in 2026 introduced a bipartisan bill by Assemblymember Josh Lowenthal to set a minimum age of 16 for social media accounts, targeting platforms such as TikTok, YouTube and Instagram. Backed by Governor Gavin Newsom and some gubernatorial candidates, the proposal would be among the world's strictest, prompting legal, free-speech and privacy concerns and echoing measures blocked in other states.
