TikTok is set to roll out enhanced age verification checks for users across Europe as it bids to clamp down on accounts made by under-13s.
The social media giant said its new technology will be able to “predict” whether an account is owned by a child under the age of 13 by using profile information, videos published, and “other on-platform behaviour”. Accounts will then be flagged to a human moderator, who will make a decision on whether to ban them.
