Summary

A federal judge blocked Tennessee’s age verification law for adult websites, ruling it likely violates First Amendment rights without effectively preventing minors’ access.

The law, which required sites to verify users’ ages via ID or data checks, faced criticism for being overly broad and potentially criminalizing innocuous content.

Tennessee’s attorney general is appealing, as similar laws take effect in states like Florida and South Carolina, while others are contested in courts.

The U.S. Supreme Court will hear arguments on Texas’ comparable law on Jan. 15.

    Y’all Qaeda’s talibangelicals are trying to make their own sharia law. It’s always the same when it comes to religious extremists. Subjugate women, hyper-control morality with an honor culture, control the narrative while rewriting history, keep everyone stupid, indoctrinate the talibangelical way, and funnel money and control to the top.
