The recent lawsuit from 14 state attorneys general targets TikTok, accusing it of exploiting young users and failing to protect them from dangerous challenges and harmful content.
California Attorney General Bob Bonta claims TikTok cultivates addiction by intentionally targeting vulnerable children, who lack the capacity to handle the addictive nature of the platform's content.
The allegations in the lawsuit highlight the platform's role in a troubling trend where dangerous TikTok challenges led to horrific outcomes, including the deaths of several teens.
The states involved in the lawsuit aim to hold TikTok accountable for what they see as a systemic problem of exploitation and deception regarding the platform's dangers.
