Twitter has made a groundbreaking move in the world of social media advertising by becoming the first major platform to allow cannabis advertisements. And now, in an effort to attract more advertisers from states where marijuana is legal, Twitter has eased its cannabis ad restrictions. As per their new rules, certified advertisers are now allowed to feature packaged cannabis products in their ad creative, a significant relaxation from the previous rules that prohibited cannabis advertisers from promoting the sale of their products or showing them in their ads. This move is likely to attract more advertisers from marijuana-legal states, and has important implications for the future of cannabis advertising on social media platforms.

In a recent development, a federal judge has ruled against Google’s motion to dismiss the antitrust case brought against it by the government. The lawsuit alleges that Google holds monopolistic power in the realm of online advertising, which harms consumers. Judge Leonie Brinkema has allowed the case to proceed in its entirety, marking the second setback for the tech giant in the federal court in Alexandria. Google had also attempted to consolidate the case with another ongoing lawsuit in New York, but Brinkema ruled against it. The case will now proceed in the Alexandria courthouse, which is known for quickly resolving disputes. The ruling is a significant blow to Google, as its alleged virtual monopoly in online advertising will now be subject to scrutiny.
Senate vote puts Minnesota on path to legalizing marijuana
The Minnesota Senate has voted to legalize recreational marijuana for adults. The vote, which took place on Friday, resulted in a close 34-33 decision, with all Democrats voting yes and all Republicans voting no. However, before the bill can become law, there are still several differences that need to be ironed out through further negotiations.
The Senate version of the bill differs from the companion version that passed the House 71-59 on Tuesday. Therefore, a House-Senate conference committee will need to come together to resolve the differences before the final votes can take place in each chamber.
Despite the necessary negotiations, Democratic Governor Tim Walz has pledged to sign the bill into law once it reaches his desk. In addition to legalizing the recreational use of marijuana, the bill would also include the expungement of minor marijuana offenses from residents’ criminal records.
