The European Union is escalating its scrutiny of TikTok,
accusing the platform of failing to meet new online safety requirements for children.
The Commission says the company must make changes to its privacy settings for minors.
If TikTok does not take these additional steps, minors are exposed to predators,
to grooming and to cyberbullying. Putting default settings for minors is not a beauty contest under
the DSA. It must be effective. TikTok now has the right to defend itself but must adapt the
settings to ensure a high level of privacy, security and safety for kids online.
The European Commission says TikTok failed to adequately protect children's privacy by
allowing adults to view accounts belonging to minors. The EU says TikTok users aged 13 to 15
can easily switch accounts from private to public. TikTok says it will review the findings and
continue working with the Commission, adding that protecting minors online is a shared goal.
The company could face a fine of up to 6 percent of its global annual revenue
if the EU determines it violated the Digital Services Act.
Critics of the EU's approach argue broad digital regulations must be carefully monitored
to ensure they aren't used as a tool for unnecessary censorship.
