The Justice Department and FTC sued TikTok for breaching the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act by illegally collecting children's personal information, leading to a high-profile legal battle with ByteDance.
TikTok disputes the allegations, highlighting its age-appropriate experiences and privacy safeguards, despite accusations of allowing children to create accounts and collect personal data without parental consent.
The lawsuit points out that TikTok knowingly let children create accounts to engage with adults, collecting extensive personal information without parental consent, even in the Kids Mode intended for under 13 users.
