Florida asks court to impose stricter teen protections on Facebook and Instagram

Reuters reports in The Economic Times that Florida’s attorney general asked a state judge for a temporary order requiring Meta to remove Florida users under 14 from Facebook and Instagram, limit teens’ use across its apps to two hours a day, and turn off autoplay and infinite scroll for them. Florida is pursuing its lawsuit after Meta settled with 48 other states and Washington, DC. Meta called the injunction request meritless.
