Texas is suing TikTok for allegedly violating its new child privacy law
Briefly

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's lawsuit against TikTok claims the company has inadequate parental control features, violating the state's new child privacy law, the SCOPE Act.
The lawsuit specifically states that TikTok fails to provide parents of users aged 13 to 17 with adequate tools to manage their children's privacy settings effectively.
The legal challenge emphasizes that, under TikTok's current Family Pairing tool, parents are left without sufficient control over the sharing of their minor child's personal information.
This litigation marks a significant test for the SCOPE Act, which mandates social media platforms to verify the ages of young users and enhance parental controls.
