Virginia aprueba la ley SB 854: Límite estricto de 1 hora diaria por red social para menores de 16
Aprobada por unanimidad legislativa, la ley SB 854 de Virginia fija un tope máximo obligatorio de 60 minutos al día por plataforma para menores de 16 años sin aval paterno expreso.
The Commonwealth of Virginia enacted landmark digital wellbeing legislation establishing strict temporal ceilings on youth technology consumption. Passing the Senate 40-0 and the House of Delegates 97-0, Senate Bill 854 (SB 854) mandates platform-enforced screen time limits for minors.
Under the statutory terms, commercial social media services must restrict users under 16 years of age to no more than 60 minutes per platform per calendar day, unless a parent or legal guardian provides verifiable affirmative consent. Once the 1-hour quota expires, access must automatically lock out until the next day.
Furthermore, SB 854 obligates platforms to execute reliable age-verification measures across their user base to maintain compliance. Although technology industry trade associations filed legal challenges, state officials maintain that protecting adolescent sleep and cognitive development justifies statutory intervention.
Legal and educational analysts observe that Virginia's 'one-hour rule' transitions public policy from ambiguous advisory warnings into definitive, mathematically enforced operational boundaries.
