Despite platform’s limits on adult content, study finds it not only accessible but often suggested
TikTok has directed children’s accounts to pornographic content within a small number of clicks, according to a report by a campaign group.
Global Witness set up fake accounts using a 13-year-old’s birth date and turned on the video app’s “restricted mode”, which limits exposure to “sexually suggestive” content.
Researchers found TikTok suggested sexualised and explicit search terms to seven test accounts that were created on clean phones with no search history.
13 year old kid: “Yea! That was what I was looking for!”
Daily reminder to stop using TikTok 🤗
applies to most for profit social media
Social media is pretty unhealthy, honestly. Especially when used excessively, no matter if it’s for profit or not.
ok thanks
I didn’t look back after switching to rednote the first time Tiktok was threatened.
I wouldn’t exactly put any trust in rednote either
If they showed millions of children pornography, the CEO would probably be in prison.
As for rednote being used to amplify narratives supported by the CPC, as an American, that is preferable to any other sizable social media I have access to except discord, where the same occurs except at the behest of the US.
At least when I report nazis on xhs, they get banned.
One more lever to force age verification / personal identification of users.
Tiktok was taken over by fanatical Zionist Larry Ellison.
But its ok. We are making adults provide ID so they can access adult material theyre legally allowed to access- UK government.
When conservatives run something, children get fucked.
There’s porn on tiktok? Have I been missing out??
Not porn. More like borderline sfw softcore. For a kid it’s more than enough though.
I can’t tell if you’re being facetious or not but perhaps you don’t remember when the biggest “stars” on tiktok were 15 year olds dancing in bikinis…
That’s not cool but also not porn.
🤮🤮🤮 I have watched maybe 3 tiktok videos in my life
When i was younger i got my kicks from the murdoch press newspapers, smh, lock those things up
That’s the new MAGA feature
Lol speedrunning
I’m shocked! Shocked!
I fucking hate tiktok. Never understood how this braincaser got allowed into the EU in the first place. Maybe I am just an old angry dumbass, but when I first started using it in my marketing team back in 2019, it just shouted cancer every post I saw. This thing should never been allowed for children. Also, read the terms of the app…

Guardian minimises Israeli genocide while holding Russia to account as it should
I didn’t think that this needed to be said, but I suppose it does.
IT IS NOT OK TO FUCK CHILDREN,PULL YOUR DICK OUT AND DO STUFF TO THEM WITH IT OR MAKE THEM DO STUFF WITH YOUR DICK. IT IS NOT OK TO LURE KIDS IN WITH THE END GOAL OF FUCKING OR MOLESTING THEM. THIS IS VERY BAD AND YOU SHOULD NEVER DO IT. RICH WHITE PEOPLE, THIS IS MAINLY FOR YOU.
There, I hope that helps.
