Indiana sues TikTok

TikTok is also facing legal challenges elsewhere. In the UK, the social media company could face a £27m ($29m) fine for failing to protect children’s privacy when they are using the platform. The popular social media app TikTok has been sued by the US state of Indiana over alleged failure to safeguard young people and privacy. Indiana filed two lawsuits on Wednesday. The first one claims the app exposes young users to inappropriate content. The complaint says the app’s algorithm promotes a variety of inappropriate content, “depicting alcohol, tobacco, and drugs; sexual content, nudity, and suggestive themes; and intense profanity.” Could this be politically motivated ?
