TikTok invests $100M in Alabama and caps teen usage at 2 hours
TikTok has committed to paying at least $100 million to the state of Alabama within 45 days as part of a settlement following allegations that it designed features encouraging excessive use of the app, particularly among teenagers, which puts their digital health and safety at risk. The modifications include restrictions on daily usage time (a maximum of two hours), reminders to take breaks after 15 minutes, a ban on nighttime access from midnight to 6 a.m., and enhanced age verification and content monitoring mechanisms. The settlement also requires the platform to develop more effective parental control tools and restrict cosmetic content for minors, as part of regulatory efforts to address the negative impacts of social media on teenagers.
