Texas has enacted an age-verification law for app stores, despite lobbying efforts from big tech companies like Apple and Google.The law requires app stores to verify users' ages and obtain parental approval for minors to download software or make in-app purchases.The bill sponsors aim to protect children and teens from inappropriate content, providing tools for parents to make decisions for their own children.Apple and Google have pushed back against these measures, expressing concerns about privacy risks and the need to submit personal information.
