Here's what goes into effect as of Wednesday, Jan. 1, 2025. As of Jan. 1, no one in Florida under the age of 14 will be allowed to have a social media account. This controversial bill replaced one that Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed because he wanted parents to have more of a role.

Australia’s parliament has passed a law banning social media for children under 16, putting tech companies on notice to tighten security before a cut-off date that’s yet to be set.

The ban will give social media companies one year to determine how to best implement the age limit and prevent teens and under from having accounts.
