SALT LAKE CITY — The state of Utah is threatening a lawsuit against social media companies for a number of"harms" they have done to children.
The governor said social media is negatively impacting teens by distracting them, disrupting their sleep and exposing them to harmful rumors, behavior, unrealistic views of others' lives and peer pressure. It results in anxiety, depression and self-harm, he said. "The negative aspects of social media are an existential threat to our youth," he said."We are on the other side of a social media Rubicon — a point of no return unless we take serious action."
Rep. Jordan Teuscher, R-West Jordan, said bills include age verification, data privacy of teens and a cell phone ban in classrooms.
When are we going to get reparations from our gooberment, churches, and MSM for their participation in the COVID plandemic? People are waking up. An apology would be a good start. 12M views on Twitter, 1.56M views on YouTube. Silence on the TV.
GovCox Just because you CAN sue and ban, doesn't mean it's a practical and effective solution. Try funding comprehensive mental health care, including a specific focus option for social media related pitfalls.
The utleg needs to start meeting every other year. Y’all apparently have too much time on your hands to think up ways to interfere with our parenting and our households. Stop it! It’s irritating!
Weak..
If parents just didn't give their kids cell phones, or installed tracking apps, that would solve the problem too. Just a distraction from the BS with HB215. Spence is a loyal foot soldier for the utleg.
Its all good! Because I am set to sue DOPL and Utah.
More of that Republican freedom...
Oh nevermind the current ecological and economic disaster that is the Salt Lake drying up in 5 years. But sure thats the priority
Pronoun Caillou Cox is saying that thy internet harms kids. This is rich.
Ecological, disaster, exceptional drought, underfunded child education: Let’s pray. The internet: I WILL SPARE NO LEGAL EXPENSE!
It would probably make sense if the Ch_JesusChrist stopped investing in social media companies as well then?
Mean while. People can’t afford housing. Can’t afford food. Wages aren’t going up and prices are so out of wack. Oh. But let’s battle social media instead. The GOP sucks so bad.
