New York accuses TikTok of serving users ‘placebo’ safety features

New York has accused TikTok of providing 'ghost' safety features to thousands of users, including kids and teens, in a revised lawsuit. The alleged 'ghost' features, which were given without users' knowledge, do not work as intended. The lawsuit claims this was done to placate users and regulators, rather than actually improving safety on the platform. The updated lawsuit was unsealed by a judge, revealing the new allegations.
