The only reason the earlier age verification laws were upheld were because they narrowly targeted porn. This is an entirely unsurprising outcome.

I do not see how this is an argument. If porn can be narrowly targeted, why apps can not be targeted narrowly as well?

It seems to be more about harmonizing Texas law (SB2420) under the constraints of federal law (1A), so we will likely to see this question all the way to the USSC.

Porn is a category; apps are a concept

Like age laws for vape pens vs age laws for shopping.

"If porn can be narrowly targeted, why not books?"

You cannot narrowly target a medium.

> "The Act is akin to a law that would require every bookstore to verify the age of every customer at the door"

Presumably for the same reason why libraries can not be targeted narrowly

Apps aren’t a narrow target
