Our children are not guinea pigs for social media. I take note of TikTok’s decision to suspend the #TikTokLite “Reward Program” in the EU. The cases against TikTok on the risk of addictiveness of the platform continue. #DSA ensures the safety of our 🇪🇺 online space.
Statement on TikTok Lite: "TikTok always seeks to engage constructively with the EU Commission and other regulators. We are therefore voluntarily suspending the rewards functions in TikTok Lite while we address the concerns that they have raised."
