Supreme Court allows Texas app law requiring age verification to take effect
Info
Summary
The Supreme Court has allowed a Texas law requiring age verification for apps to take effect while a lower court considers its constitutionality. This law mandates that app developers and stores use age verification tools to prevent minors from accessing apps without parental consent, a measure that has sparked debate over First Amendment rights and child online safety. The law follows a previous Supreme Court ruling regarding Texas’s efforts to block children from accessing pornographic websites.
