"A social media platform shall present a warning to minor users on the negative effects of social media use on social, emotional and physical health. The warning shall be presented to a minor user upon account activation and every 30 days thereafter and shall require the minor user to acknowledge the warning before proceeding to use the social media platform." OK, that's compelled speech. I'm a physicist, not a constitutional lawyer, but I'm pretty sure there's a high bar to clear when the state is telling people what to say. Also, I am not going to lie and say that the evidence about social media harming minors is less equivocal than it really is.

... I have drafted a letter about this. With my intense scatterbrain going on today, I might hold off on mailing it until tomorrow so I can give it another check. https://www.sunclipse.org/wp-content/downloads/2025/01/HD3070.pdf
