TikTok Settles Child Harm Lawsuit in Alabama for at Least $100 Million
TikTok and its parent company ByteDance have agreed to pay the state of Alabama at least $100 million to settle claims that the video platform was designed to be addictive for children and misled users about its safety. This marks the first time TikTok has settled with a U.S. state over allegations of harming young users, and it comes just before the Alabama lawsuit was set to become the first state-level case against the company to go to trial.
