TikTok knowingly allowed its livestreaming feature to expose minors to sexual exploitation, criminal activity and other harms, according to newly unsealed allegations in a Utah lawsuit.
The lawsuit, originally filed by Utah last June, accuses TikTok of fostering an environment where predators used its livestream feature, TikTok Live, to exploit minors, paying them to "strip, pose, and dance provocatively" in exchange for virtual gifts, the Guardian reported.
