TikTok has announced plans to prohibit users under the age of 18 from using beauty filters, citing mental health concerns as a primary reason for this decision. The platform aims to combat issues related to anxiety and self-esteem among younger users. Additionally, TikTok is tightening its regulations to ensure that users under the age of 13 are blocked from accessing the platform altogether. This initiative is expected to be implemented by the end of the year, with the company emphasizing its commitment to promoting a healthier online environment for teenagers.
