TikTok unveils changes to meet tough new EU rules

Thanks to its editing features and an AI-powered algorithm, TikTok is popular, especially with younger audiences, and has over a billion users.

It has, however, come under fierce Western scrutiny over its ties to China. Its owner, ByteDance, is Chinese, but the company denies it is under Beijing’s tutelage. TikTok said other measures to ensure compliance with the EU’s Digital Services Act include making it easier for European users to report illegal content and banning targeted advertising for users in Europe aged 13 to 17.

It added it would also be more transparent about its content moderation decisions, giving users more information about why a video has been taken down. “We will continue to not only meet our regulatory obligations but also strive to set new standards through innovative solutions,” TikTok said.All rights reserved.
