14 Attorneys General Sue TikTok Over Addictive Features and Child Mental Health Concerns
Oct 8, 2024, 03:45 PM
A bipartisan coalition of 14 attorneys general from 13 US states and Washington, D.C., has filed lawsuits against TikTok, accusing the social media giant of harming young users' mental health. The lawsuits allege that TikTok's platform is designed to be addictive, causing issues such as anxiety, sleep loss, and body image problems among children and teens. The attorneys general, including Brian Schwalb from Washington, D.C., and representatives from New York and California, claim that TikTok misrepresented its commitment to user safety and violated consumer protection laws by downplaying the harmful effects of its platform. The legal action highlights growing concerns over the impact of social media on youth well-being.
