Massachusetts H.5349 would ban social media for children under 14 and require age verification for teens — a measure EFF says violates free speech and privacy rights through mandatory age assurance. The bill has strong public support (72% of MA voters back restrictions) but faces criticism from digital rights groups and some privacy advocates who argue it trades away anonymity and marginalizes vulnerable populations without effectively addressing the underlying design practices that harm kids. Constitutional challenges are likely if the bill passes, making the 'unconstitutional' framing premature — the legal question will be decided in court, not settled fact.
