The FTC has referred its child privacy case against TikTok to the Justice Department
Briefly

Our investigation found reason to believe that TikTok is violating or about to violate the FTC Act and the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), FTC Chair Lina Khan said.
The referral is likely to ramp up pressure on TikTok, which is also fighting a legal battle against the US government to avoid a potential ban.
A TikTok spokesperson expressed disappointment with the FTC's decision, stating they had been working with the agency for over a year to address concerns.
TikTok remains committed to protecting children despite the FTC allegations, emphasizing past efforts and practices in safeguarding user data.
