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.
Daily reminder to stop using TikTok 🤗

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.
The problem is that they’re being served adult content despite the site knowing they’re underage, so age verification wouldn’t help at all… If anything, this is a demonstration as to why age verification isn’t a good solution.

Won’t stop surveillance state bad actors from arguing exactly the opposite, though.
You’re absolutely right, but it’s not like facts matter anymore in this regard.
Are we talking like actual porn on tiktok or just women dancing in bikinis? Because one of those used to be called the MTV channel, and the other was always being accessed by teens with a few clicks.
The search function immediately suggesting very rude videos and rude girls etc, probably softcore but weird to recommend to accounts set up as 13 year olds with age restrictions
The difference I suppose is deliberately looking for it vs the algorithm feeding it to them
Actual nudity was never allowed on tiktok. But kink is fine.
That’s the new MAGA feature
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.
I’m shocked! Shocked!
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…
Tiktok was taken over by fanatical Zionist Larry Ellison.
Anyone remember when tiktok was called musically? It was basically a dispo for pedos
When i was younger i got my kicks from the murdoch press newspapers, smh, lock those things up
13 year old kid: “Yea! That was what I was looking for!”
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…
Ok. I hope they treat you better in Russia
I am not from russia, wtf are you talking about dude?
lol The baby next to your account and your wildly divisive bullshit paint a entirely different picture weirdo
Why are you coming at me with this hate? Because I talked bad about your favorite child porn app?
Hentai is just Japanese cartoons, right? RIGHT???
