The Ninth Circuit Court has affirmed a preliminary injunction blocking California's Age-Appropriate Design Code Act, citing First Amendment concerns. The court found that the law, which aimed to protect children online by requiring companies to mitigate exposure to harmful content, overreaches by compelling companies to censor content. The ruling partially upholds the injunction, indicating that parts of the law are likely unconstitutional. This decision aligns with arguments from online giants and free speech advocates, who contend that the law infringes on First Amendment rights. The case was brought forward by NetChoice, and the court has remanded the rest of the case for further proceedings.
