Not to mention, what does it mean to use? Is passively consuming content without contributing or even creating an account using? Because, if so.... this means that YouTube gets turned upside down in this case.
- LegionMammal978 4y ago> Not to mention, what does it mean to use? Presumably, to use a platform is to be a user of that platform, where a user is "a person who posts, uploads, transmits, shares, or otherwise publishes or receives content through a social media platform" [0]. Since YouTube is unambiguously a social media platform by Texas law (it primarily consists of user-generated content), the bill as written would prohibit receiving YouTube videos without logging in with an age-verified account. I strongly doubt the bill will go anywhere. [0] https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/BC/htm/BC.120.htm https://statutes.capitol.texas.gov/Docs/BC/htm/BC.120.htm
