CA’s social media ban weaponizes legitimate parental concerns, using them to hand over more censorship and surveillance power to the government. Beneath shiny “protect the children” rhetoric, AB 1709 is misguided, unconstitutional, and deeply harmful to users of all ages. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/04/act-now-stop-californias-paternalistic-and-privacy-destroying-social-media-ban

Act Now to Stop California’s Paternalistic and Privacy-Destroying Social Media Ban

California lawmakers are fast-tracking A.B. 1709—a sweeping bill that would ban anyone under 16 from using social media and force every user, regardless of age, to verify their identity before accessing social platforms. In the name of “safety,” this bill would destroy online anonymity, expose sensitive personal data to breach and abuse, and replace parental decision-making with state-mandated censorship.
