    So you see this as specifically a tiktok problem and not a tech problem? Do you think it won’t/hasn’t happened elsewhere, and will be only a tiktok problem? I don’t use tiktok, or care about it but I feel like every problem with it is something endemic to social media platforms run by businesses atm.

      Sorry, just blurting an admittedly off-topic idea. No, I don’t think TikTok is the problem here…

      But why isn’t TikTok banned? It is cancer.
