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.
