Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said Sunday that his state's recently signed laws that require parental consent and time limits for minors on social media sites are not"foolproof" and recognizes there are"enforcement issues."
Utah's two new laws, signed by Cox on Thursday, require age verification and parental consent before children can sign up for sites like TikTok and Instagram. The new laws also limit time spent on social media, prohibiting children under 18 from using social media between the hours of 10:30 p.m. and 6:30 a.m.
The Utah governor urged Congress to enact similar federal laws on social media and believes other states will follow Utah's lead on social media legislation.
