TikTok to be fined for breaching children’s privacy in EU::Action by regulator follows £12.7m fine by UK for illegally processing data of 1.4m children under 13
My understanding is that you have to state your age is at least 13 years of age to create a tiktok account, meaning these kids were lying about their age to create an account… right?
I’m not defending tiktok, but am also confused how this aspect or the “lack of parental consent”mentioned in the article ends up being TikTok’s responsibility.
I did read the article, I’m just confused about those aspects.
Ah a fine? Oh surely they will learn a lesson from this hefty fine and never do such a thing again.
So the annual cost of advertising is a little over 1k/child?
TikTok should be banned in all the civilized world.
