TikTok settles Alabama youth safety lawsuit for $100 million
TikTok has reached a settlement with Alabama in a lawsuit alleging the platform misled parents about its tools to protect children from harmful content. The agreement, which avoids a trial scheduled for Monday, requires TikTok to pay Alabama at least $100 million and implement new restrictions for teenage users, including time limits. This marks the first state-level settlement for TikTok concerning claims of inadequate youth safety measures.
