Virginie adopte la loi SB 854 : Plafond d'une heure quotidienne par réseau pour les moins de 16 ans
Adoptée à l'unanimité, la loi SB 854 de Virginie impose une limite obligatoire de 60 minutes par plateforme et par jour pour les jeunes de moins de 16 ans sans consentement parental.
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.
