Social media age verification laws in the United States

Many U.S. states have implemented age verification laws and other age-related restrictions for social media intended to limit young people's access to content deemed problematic such as pornography and to reduce the negative impact of social media on the mental health and well-being of children and adolescents. The purpose and effects of such laws are highly contested, and some states' laws have been overturned by the judicial system.
