Ok. Tanning beds are cancer machines for everyone. The enablement is a consequence of allowing sun beds in the first place - this doesn't change much honestly.

Also, what groups are cleared here? Teenagers? Children? There is a lot of ambiguity in that news site.

rule that would have banned minors from using devices that mimic sunlight

The rule, which was withdrawn March 16, would have also required indoor tanning facility users to sign a form acknowledging the risk of cancer, early skin aging and other health effects.

Misleading title.
