Beginning January 1, 2026, a law known as Senate Bill 854 will compel social media companies to confirm the ages of all users through “commercially reasonable methods” and to restrict anyone under sixteen to one hour of use per platform per day.Parents will have the option to override those limits through what the statute calls “verifiable parental consent.”The measure is written into the state’s Consumer Data Protection Act, and it bars companies from using any information gathered for age checks for any other purpose.Lawmakers from both parties rallied behind the bill, portraying it as a way to reduce what they described as addictive and harmful online habits among young people.Delegate Wendell Walker argued that social media “is almost like a drug addiction,” while Delegate Sam Rasoul said that “people are concerned about the addiction of screen time” and accused companies of building algorithms that “keep us more and more addicted.”Enforcement authority falls to the Office of the Attorney General, which may seek injunctions or impose civil fines reaching $7,500 per violation for noncompliance.But this policy, framed as a health measure, has triggered strong constitutional objections from the technology industry and free speech advocates.The trade association NetChoice filed a federal lawsuit (NetChoice v. Miyares) in November 2025, arguing that Virginia’s statute unlawfully restricts access to lawful speech online.Copy of the lawsuit here:https://docs.reclaimthenet.org/netchoice-v-virginia-attorney-general-complaint.pdfThe complaint draws parallels to earlier moral panics over books, comic strips, rock music, and video games, warning that SB 854 “does not enforce parental authority; it imposes governmental authority, subject only to a parental veto.”>>>NOTE: ALL POSTERS IN FAVOR OF THIS LAW MUST PROVIDE A PARENTAL PERMISSION SLIP AND/OR VALID STATE-CERTIFIED ID CHIP IN ORDER TO POST.
>The complaint draws parallels to earlier moral panicsOh haha that means it's not a big deal, I am smart
