European regulators slapped TikTok with a $368 million fine on Friday for failing to protect children's privacy
LONDON — European regulators slapped TikTok with a $368 million fine on Friday for failing to protect children’s privacy, the first time that the popular short video-sharing app has been punished for breaching Europe’s strict data privacy rules.
The investigation found that the sign-up process for teen users resulted in settings that made their accounts public by default, allowing anyone to view and comment on their videos. Those default settings also posed a risk to children under 13 who gained access to the platform even though they’re not allowed.
TikTok said in a statement that it disagrees with the decision, “particularly the level of the fine imposed.”
