NetChoice, the group that filed the lawsuit, represents major tech giants like Meta, Airbnb, Amazon, TikTok, Google, and more.

The law—known as SB 396 or the Social Media Safety Act—would require social media platforms to verify the age of all users, and any users under the age of 18 would require parental consent before creating an account. NetChoice argues that SB 396 is a threat to the privacy and online safety of Arkansans, especially children and teenagers, since the law would require social media platforms to use a third-party to run age verification checks.

“We’re suing Arkansas today to protect First Amendment rights and keep online speech accessible,” said NetChoice Litigation Center Director Chris Marchese in the release. “This law empowers the state to tell Arkansans what types of information they’re allowed to access online, forces them to hand over their most sensitive documents to use the internet, and seizes decision making from parents and families. That is an unconstitutional power grab, and we’re petitioning to put a stop to it.
