Key takeaway Further details on this development can be found through KTVU FOX 2 News, which reported on the court's decision and its implications for Ohio's social media laws.
A federal appeals court decision is allowing Ohio to move forward with enforcing a law related to social media use by minors. The law requires children under a certain age to obtain parental permission before creating or maintaining social media accounts. The age threshold for this requirement is 16 years old, meaning children under 16 will need permission from a parent to use social media.
