GoKawiilTikTok settles with Alabama for $100 million over teen safety claims
TikTok has agreed to pay Alabama at least $100 million and implement new teen-safety measures, including a two-hour daily time limit, overnight access restrictions, stronger age verification, a ban on beauty filters, and an optional non-personalized feed. The settlement, reached just before a scheduled trial, resolves claims that TikTok misled parents about its child-safety tools, and could rise to $300 million if 40 other state attorneys general sign similar agreements.
