TikTok to pay $400M in kids privacy suit
TikTok and its parent company ByteDance have agreed to pay $400 million to settle a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Department of Justice regarding violations of children's privacy laws. They were accused of collecting data from children under the age of 13 without parental consent. The settlement includes an immediate payment of $300 million and an additional $100 million after a decision to revoke a previous settlement, making it one of the largest amounts ever collected in cases involving online children’s privacy protection. The lawsuit alleged that TikTok collected and used data from children, especially through "Kids Mode" accounts designed for users under 13, thereby putting children's safety at risk.
