Bet they use this case as reason to ban abortion pills instead.

Syphilis can hang out for something like 30 years. Maybe they were on a break, or he got infected before they got together.
Wow! Thank you for such a detailed answer. Even without some weird law, it's good information to have, and with a little elbow grease, it sounds completely doable. And if it keeps people from getting in trouble / protects privacy, I'm all for it!
I find this interesting. Does one just install software and buy a domain? I would assume theres somewhere you have to register with in order to federate. I mean, if theres no one to go after, this would be a nice work around. At least, until theres a site for every Texan that figures it out.
I think semi public would be like setting your facebook profile to private. It shows your name, and basic details, but doesn't show all your posts or interactions.
Edit: haha, you kinda answered this somewhere else as I was typing.
Or, like, not allow registration for under 18s at all, I suppose.
Problem is, one would still have to find a way to verify the registrant is over 18.
Its getting more dystopian by the week. I would say day, but a lot of brains don't move that fast here.
That's the vibe I'm getting. No problem.
This is a fair view. I'm not sure anyone has gotten that far, especially outside the country.
Heres an article about a similar bill in Utah, that hasn't gone into effect yet.
What's not clear from the Utah bill and others is how the states plan to enforce the new regulations.
I mean if the general consensus is that it doesn't apply, then, cool.
Maybe someone is better equip to answer this question. As far as I understand, it is up to the social media company, as it is operating in the state. Sort of the way the corporate office of a national grocery store can be sued.

First, it prohibits digital service providers from entering into an agreement with a known minor unless they have verifiable parental consent.
It seems its up to whomever is registering the account. If the person is under 18 they see a scrubbed version, of the person is over 18 they have full access. I'm not sure an ISP has control like that. I could be wrong.
I know with pornhub, the ISP didn't block the site, pornhub itself did.
Someone can correct me if im wrong, but, pretty sure its any social media. Similar to what happened with pornhub.
According to the Texas Office of the Attorney General, this new law will primarily “apply to digital services that provide an online platform for social interaction between users that: (1) allow users to create a public or semi-public profile to use the service, and (2) allow users to create or post content that can be viewed by other users of the service. This includes digital services such as message boards, chat rooms, video channels, or a main feed that presents users content created and posted by other users.”
That happen to a person in our group in Australia, but with cocaine. We were waiting to collect our baggage before customs. The officers told them to put it in thier waistline and see if the dog would sniff it out. Pups was sucessful and got some pets. He didn't have a Kong tho.
