The popular video-sharing app, TikTok, is being sued by two families after their daughters both allegedly died as a result of a viral trend.
Several families have come forward to slam the app for its ‘dangerous’ algorithms and to say that the videos they aim at younger people are to blame for these tragedies.
The specific challenge being referenced in this most recent lawsuit is called the ‘blackout challenge’ in which both girls, aged eight and nine years old, died taking part.
